ON COURSE RULES
All putts inside the length of your putter is now considered a “GIMMIE”. The purpose of this rule is to help speed up the pace of play to ensure everyone has plenty of time to enjoy lunch before the afternoon rounds start. This rule will only apply during the first round (2v2), not the scramble round.
Any ball that goes out of bounds or is lost is going to play as if it’s a red stake. Which means; dropping your ball within two club lengths of the point where the ball crosses or touches the hazard, no nearer the hole. In non-golf terms, if your ball goes into the fescue or forest and you can’t find it - You are to drop your ball within 2 club lengths (driver) of the point of entry, not where you think it landed.
Max score a player can shoot per hole is double par. Once double par is reached please pick up ball.
Tier 1 & 2 golfers play from the Blue Tee’s for round 1.
Tier 3 & 4 golfers play from White Tee’s for round 1.
All players will shoot from Blue Tee’s for the scramble round 2.
RULES
ROUND 1 - HIGH/LOW
Team Scoring: Each team will be split into 2 pairs. Once pairs are determined, they will be paired up against another pairing from a different team for a match game of High/Low (scoring rules listed below).
High/Low Rules: The low score of both teams will match up against each other, while the high score of each team will match up against each other on each hole. Points will be worth 0.5 for a max total of 1 point per hole.
Tier 1 & 2 will play from the Blue Tee’s *
Tier 3 & 4 will play from the White Tee’s *
*Unless approved otherwise
TEAM 1 (Sample score)
Player 1 = 7
Player 2 = 4
TEAM 2 (Sample score)
Player 1 = 6
Player 2 = 5
SAMPLE SCORING FOR HIGH/LOW
Team 1 win’s low score with a 4 (over Team 2’s 5)
Team 2 win’s high score with a 6 (over Team 1’s 7)
Each team would receive .5 points for this hole. The scores do not cancel each other out.
Total match scores are added together from both pairings to decide the winning team.
ROUND 1 - SINGLES EVENT
Singles winnings will be the entire prize pool based on the number of entries. The winner is determined by the lowest score during Round 1 of the team events. Declaration of being a part of the singles event is required prior to rounds beginning. You cannot win singles if you do not enter, even if you have the lowest score.
Tiebreaker: Chip off challenge. Other players will select the target. Each player gets 3 shots. Closest shot wins (judged by others).
**NEW** We will be awarding a low score prize for each tier this year. Prize money is included in the entry fee. This is in addition to the overall low score event listed above.
ROUND 2 - SCRAMBLE
Team Scramble: During the second-round, you will be joined back up with your team to compete in a round of scramble golf. For scramble golf, each member of your team will take a shot from the tee box and then as a team you decide which is the best shot and everyone shoots from there. This routine continues until the ball is in the hole.
You are required to use at least (2) tee-shots from each member of your team. One on the front and back nine. Please indicate on your score card whose tee shot you used for each hole.
Teams will play from the Blue Tee’s
SCORING FOR SCRAMBLE
Hole-in-one or Albatross: 8 pts
