In 1992, Johnny Miller kindly hosted a charity tournament on Larry's behalf to
raise money for his golf prosthesis. Johnny stood on a par three hitting a shot
with each group of golfers and added a new element to the tournament. Now
Larry, in return, has created The "One-Armed Bandit" Challenge to give something
back to the golf world. The "One-Armed Bandit" has taken his Challenge to a new
level by spreading his story across the country. Are you ready for the challenge?
The Bandit will greet each group of players on a designated par three and
give a brief demonstration of his unique golf prosthetic hand. The Bandit
will proceed to hit a shot, challenging the players to knock it closer.
Any player who beats The Bandit will win a sleeve of balls
and a Texana Cigar. At the end of the tournament the player closest to the
pin will enjoy a gift certificate to a fine restaurant or pro shop.
And if a hole-in-one is made your guest walks away with two Masters
tickets to the Par three tournament and practice round and many more prizes.
The Challenge ranges from 100 to 150 yards, so everyone has a chance to win!
It is very simple to have The Bandit participate in your eventeven at
the last minute. All he needs is a sponsorship, a par three, and that's it!
He furnishes his own table, chairs, tent, prizes, signage, etc. No extra help
is needed.
Sponsors will receive great exposure and recognition before, during, and
after the event. The Bandit will represent the charity, the sponsor, and the
golf course to the best of his ability.
