Jim Hitch Golf APPLICATION description
Founded on June 2 1972. The Jim Hitch Memorial Golf Tournament has become one of Americas most historic and prestigious junior golf championships. Founded by Lala and Lad Hitch, the tournament was a way to offer a quality golf tournament to the youth of the region and remember their outstanding son, Jim.

Jim Hitch was the son of a prominent Oklahoma Panhandle rancher and farmer. Jim was also a proud member of the Guymon, Oklahoma Class of 1971.
To say Jim was an outstanding young man is an understatement. He was an outstanding basketball player and was also very gifted musically. But Jim’s first love and greatest skill was on the golf course and he became one of the highest ranked junior golfers in the country in 1969 and 1970.
As a picture of health and the age of 17, Jim unexpectedly died in his sleep and left his family and friends devastated from this loss. Jim Hitch’s parents, Lad and Lala Hitch, were not golfers but they understood Jim’s love of golf so in his memory and to be also to give the junior golfers of the region a quality tournament to enjoy the great game that their son loved and excelled at.
