On one of the days, everyone will be taking a short drive up to Memphis for a visit to Graceland to check out where the "King" lived, followed by an evening of partying on the infamous Beale Street. Another day's events involve a short trek south to Clarksdale, deep into blues country for a tour of the Delta Blues Museum, dinner at the Hopson Commissary (included) and an evening of rock'n entertainment with Stan Street at Morgan Freeman's Ground Zero Blues Club.

All the courses involved in the tournament play are in Tunica, and are less than 5 minutes from the Harrah's Casino. In fact, The Links at Cottonwoods is on the Harrah's property.

This 18-hole Hale Irwin-designed championship course has a Scottish links feel with gentle rolling fairways. The course has recently undergone some renovations and plays to 7,200 yards with a slope rating of 119. Don't be followed by the slope rating as in its routing Irwin has created a few risk reward holes that will come and bit you if you're not careful. The 370 yard 5th tempts you to bite off more than you can chew, beware the water along the right doubles or more are common here. Fifteen through 17 can be a troublesome threesome unless you are on your game. No time for demons or butterflies on the stretch.

"Water, water everywhere" is the theme for Tunica National, Tunica's newest - and arguably the finest - golf facility featuring an exciting 7,210-yard, par 72 championship layout designed by renowned PGA Tour Player and architect Mark McCumber and one of the finest practice facilities around. You will find water (hopefully you won't) on pretty much every hole on the course along with many strategically place bunkers placed, as Robin Williams would say, "Just to f--- with your ball." The saving grace here is that the landing areas off the tee are generous, but if you are having a bad day here it could become a really bad day! To help those new to the course every cart comes with Global Positioning System technology.

Golf course architect Clyde Johnston describes his River Bend Links Course as "a field of dunes." Clyde transformed this cotton field into a marvelous Scottish links style course. Built next to the Mississippi River, animals still inhabit the area and during the round you may see deer, fox, or wild turkey. The name alone conjures up images of wind-swept treeless terrain, and that is exactly what River Bend Links is. This par 72, 6,900-yard masterpiece features lakes, sand and grass bunkers and strategically placed mounds. You will love the 9th and 18th holes, exceptional holes to finish off each nine.

Tunica, Mississippi – home base for the Golf & Blues Tournament - is the 3rd largest gaming destination in America after Las Vegas and Atlantic City. With nine casinos, over 6,000 hotel rooms, more than 50 restaurants, and exciting headliner entertainment, it's easy to see why Tunica has become one of the nation's hottest destinations.
