12th Annual Rodney Sparks Memorial Golf Scramble Frequently Asked Questions
-
The night before the golf outing, we hold a MUG Mixer from 5 PM to 9:30 PM. The event is held on Crosby Drive near the Speidel Golf Club and will feature dinner provided by Moss Industrial Services, Live Music provided by Steel Nation and a bar provided by Bluewater Energy Services and sponsored by All Star Sports Bar & Grill.
Once again, we will be having a glow in the dark closest to the pin challenge.
We will have a shuttle, sponsored by Revolution Energy Services, running between the hotels and the party to eliminate the need to get behind the wheel.

NEW THIS YEAR! We will have a drone drop on Palmer and a Golf Ball Cannon on the Jones.
Done Drop - will be on a par 5. You’ll direct the drone operator to exactly where you want to drop the ball on the green - two price levels based on how high off the green you want to drop your first shot for a chance for an easy 2 or even a hole in one!
Golf Ball Cannon - will be placed on a par 4. An easy and fun way to get your first shot 400+ yards off the tee.
We will have the standard skill prizes on each course - Men’s Long Drive, Women’s Long Drive, Longest Putt, Closest 2nd Shot and Closest to the Pin.
We also have a Par 5 Challenge on each course - From the tee, each player that participates hits their drive from the tee box. If a ball lands within any of the targets, that individual will be entered into an exclusive raffle. If the entire team enters, once each player tees off, you take your official 1st shot from 100 yards from the green within the designated zone.

We have both the Palmer and the Jones Courses this year and expect north of 280 golfers as well as tent sponsors scattered around the course. You’ll be surrounded by over 300 industry professionals at this MUG event.
