Launch is out of the Brady Mountain Resort & Marina.

Pro field set for 2011 Forrest Wood Cup on Lake Ouachita in Arkansas.
 

The Forrest Wood Cup Tournament, which draws anglers from several FLW circuits, replaced the former FLW Tour Championship in 2007.

  • The First Forrest Woods Cup Tournament was held on Lake Ouachita in 2007.
    Tournament winner Scott Suggs of Bryant, Arkansas took home the first $1 million prize in Bass fishing history

  • The 2nd tournament in 2008 saw Michael Bennett winning the Cup and collecting $1 million dollars.

  • The 3rd tournament in 2009, the Tournament Cup went to Greg Hackney, by not being Ranger-qualified he missed the  $500,000 Ranger bonus, taking home $500,000.

  • The 4th tournament in 2010 was held on Lake Lanier in Georgia.  The $500,000 Ranger Bonus dropped but, Kevin Hawk, who earned $500,000 for his Forrest Wood Cup victory, was pleasantly surprised when T. Boone Pickens, a new equity partner in FLW Outdoors, personally contributed an additional $100,000 to the first-place purse.
    With that, Hawk took home $600,000 for his victory

  • The 2011 FLW Forrest Woods Cup Tournament is returning to Lake Ouachita in Arkansas.
     The Ranger bonus is back for 2011, reduced to $100,000, which puts the 1st-place prize at $600,000.
