Play will be in foursomes and we ask each group to play ready golf, hit only 1 approach shot into the greens and limit the chipping and putting to make sure you are keeping up with the group in front of you and play in 5 hours (16/17 minutes per hole).
Golf Course set-up
The golf course set up will be determined by course & weather conditions each day. A general yardage guideline is available on the tournament website with the boys playing the Gold tee markers with a total yardage of approximately 7250 and the girls playing the Blue tee markers with a total yardage of approximately 6350. Yardage guides will be provided at registration. Rules/Hole location sheets will be available on the 1st & 10th tees.
Rules Questions
There will be four USGA certified Rules Officials on the golf course to help with any ruling questions. If you have a rules question and cannot find an Official, please call the phone # listed on the rules/hole locations sheet and we’ll get one to you.
Caddies
Players are allowed to carry their own clubs, use a pushcart (we have pushcarts available at no cost if you don’t want the hassle of bringing your own) or use a caddie. We are encouraging players to have a sibling, parent, coach, etc. caddy for them. If you need a caddie and do not have one, please contact Drew at drewsawyer@crookedstick.org. and we’ll try to find a local caddie for you. It will be the player’s responsibility to pay the caddie and the cost is $75 per round. Caddies will pick up their caddie bib at the range prior to play on Monday afternoon.

Mixed Four-Ball competition.
We have assigned you a partner for the Pete & Alice Dye Four-Ball competition and you will play with them during Monday’s practice round. Pete and Alice loved to play together and were a great team, so we want to honor that with this additional fun competition. The winners will be determined by the lowest 54-hole mixed four-ball score of the partners.

In the case of inclement weather, If you hear the siren, please discontinue play immediately and seek shelter. We will have staff and volunteers escort you off the golf course.
Signage and flag display
Around the golf course you will see signs and flags from golf courses designed by Pete & Alice. We encourage you to read them to help you get to know the Dye’s and the impact they’ve had on the Game. Both were incredible players and they used golf to positively change the lives of many people.
