AMA Convos is the working title of a series of gatherings the AMA will have in 2026 to connect competitive mini golf enthusiasts and to share knowledge about the sport of mini golf.

Details:

Bryan Akers of The Putters League Atlanta will be hosting a conversation on the world of international mini golf. Tom Loftus of A Couple of Putts will join as a co-host. The two of them have competed internationally for the past 3 years in tournaments in Austria, the Czech Republic, the UK, Sweden, and Portugal. Putters League created Putting Planet, a guide to mini golf tournaments, which includes info on numerous international tournaments and tours. Both players have played for Team USA at the World Adventure Golf Masters (WAGM) and qualified for the World Adventure Golf Tour in the past 2 years.

The focus of the conversation will be on adventure golf (the main type of mini golf we play in the US), but there will be some brief discussion on the international standard forms of the sport. Tom & Bryan expect several other players who have international mini golf experience to join the conversation and share advice for those interested in venturing outside the US for mini golf.

We’ll leave lots of room for Q&A and inquiries. The goal is to record the conversation to be used as a future episode of the Puttcast.
