WINNING HEARTS. Not JUST TROPHIES.

Competitive Pros: Male & Female Flights, All ages

Churches and community groups
Anyone who loves the game
Spectators and the community to join in the fun

BUILDING A GAME FOR LIFE.
“The Fat Belly Tour was built around a vision much bigger than golf.”
– Michael Bruchet
OUR GREATER MISSION
As the Fat Belly Tour grows, our deeper aim is to strengthen fathers and form boys into grounded young men. Build A Game For Life is our modern knighthood track— meaningful adventures that forge character, leadership, and a practical code of honor for real life.
Through outdoor adventure retreats—blending golf, fly fishing, backpacking, skiing, mountaineering and woodworking—boys step into manhood with purpose, gaining practical skills, steady confidence, and the inner strength to lead.
The virtues we’re committed to forming:
Truth — Speak honestly, Keep your word.
Courage — Stand firm when fear rises
Honor — Choose the noble way, always
Self-Mastery — Rule yourself before you lead
Protection — Strength used to defend, not dominate
Justice — Set wrongs right with steady hands
Mercy — Hold strength with a gentle heart
Loyalty — Faithful to God, family, and brothers
Service — Take up the burden gladly
Stewardship — Tend what is entrusted; leave it better
Faith — Walk with God and live with purpose
Our vision for Build A Game For Life is to establish a permanent retreat and training center where boys become men through outdoor adventure camps.
This will require significant capital, land, and leadership — and we are beginning to lay the foundation now.
