SHAMBLE FORMAT
Under this format, each golfer will drive and the team will select the best drive. Players then play their own ball, placing the ball within one club length. Each player will finish the hole using his or her own ball. If the tee ball chosen is in the rough, fringe, fescue, bunker or hazard, the one club length may not change the playing condition. One low ball gross and one net counts for your team score. If you are a threesome, a team member may hit an additional tee shot on each hole, but you must alternate. A blind draw will be selected as your fourth player. Each golfer’s drive must be used twice during the round. MAXIMUM SCORE IS NET DOUBLE BOGEY. IF A GOLFER IS OUT OF THE HOLE, PLEASE PICK UP YOUR BALL IN ORDER TO KEEP THE PACE OF PLAY MOVING.
SCORING: Golfers are playing to 50% of handicap as indicated on their scorecard. Teams should record their low gross score and low net score for each hole. Please submit your scorecards to the golf pros as soon as you complete your round so that results can be tabulated.
MULLIGANS: There are no mulligans.
BET-A-BIRDIE CONTEST
On a designated par 3 hole on each course, we have a fun contest where you can walk away with cash right on the spot. There are three pins on this green and you can play to any one of them. Prior to your drive, you can bet anywhere from $10-$100 and, if you birdie the hole on your own ball, you will win the amount that you bet. Format on this hole is NOT the same “shamble” and you simply play your own ball. Low individual gross & net scores on this hole become your team’s score.
HOLD THE GREEN CONTEST
On a designated par 3, you can place a $20 bet that your drive can hold the green. If you are able to do this, you will be awarded, on the spot, with a $40 gift card good for any Callaway products. This gift card can be redeemed anywhere Callaway products are sold.
HOLE-IN-ONE OPPORTUNITIES
Golfers will have a chance to win a two-year car lease for a hole-in-one on a specified hole. On other par threes, a golfer getting a hole-in-one will win another designated prize.
PRIZES: Prizes will awarded to golfers on each of the three courses:
