RULES
- Do not putt the putting course prior to teeing off. There is a small practice area in front that can be used to warm up.
- 18 holes stroke play
- Limit of one club
- Switch score cards so that you are keeping another player’s score
- Determine who will tee off first (flip a coin or a tee) and lowest score on a hole determines honors, furthest from the hole putts first and then continuously putts until done with hole.
- Tee off no more than 2′ from the arrow designating the hole and not closer to the hole
- If the ball bounces off the pin and does not go in the hole, then keep putting. Hitting the pin is not considered a made putt. You may remove pin before putting.
- No gimmies, no mulligans, not replaying of hole, all putts must end up at the bottom of the hole on every hole
- If you putt into the rough, you may take relief from the rough and place it onto the green no closer to the hole plus 1 penalty stroke. Or you can play it from the rough with no penalty.
- Max score is a 5. Pick up after 5 putts
- Check and sign score cards and return to Event Manager.
- As a result of a tie, there will be a sudden-death playoff to determine the champion.
