Turner's Lodge Pro Golf Museum at Falconhead Resort

Golf legend Johnny Pott returns to Burneyville, Oklahoma, on November 6th to celebrate his 90th birthday and a new exhibit in his honor.

At age 26, Johnny won the 1962 Waco Turner Open on the PGA Tour at Turner's Lodge (now Falconhead Resort) in Burneyville, OK. His score of 16 under par 276 set the tournament record! It was his third of an eventual five PGA Tournament wins during a playing career from 1956-1972, where he also played on three Ryder Cup teams. Johnny helped build 50 golf communities and championship courses, among them Oak Tree National in Oklahoma (1976), PGA West in California (1986), and Pikewood National in West Virginia (2010).

Now, it’s time to celebrate, and Pott has announced he will travel from Sacramento to Falconhead Resort in Burneyville, OK, on November 6, 2025 for his 90th birthday. A museum exhibit and birthday party at 2 p.m. in the Pro Shop will honor Pott and colorfully document a 70-year career in golf.
