TIES:
Ties for flighting will be determined by USGA tie breaker (last 9, 6, 3, 1). Ties for first will be settled with a sudden death playoff starting on hole #1 immediately following completion of play Sunday (1st flight only, for the overall title). All other ties will split prize money.
Please tee off according to the following schedule:
Friday All Players - White Tees

LOCAL RULES:
Flower beds – players may treat flower beds as ground under repair
Stones in Bunkers – Stones may be removed from bunkers; golf ball may not be moved
Hole #3– Both the left/right sides of hole are to be treated as a lateral hazard. If ball is believed to be in the hazard, please proceed under normal hazard (red stake) ruling. One Ball Rule NOT in effect. Distance Measuring devices that do NOT measure slope ARE permitted. Ground under repair marked with white paint. New green expansion areas are played as fairway.
PRIZES:
Prizes will be awarded following the completion of play in the form of golf shop credit (over $4500). Prizes for the low gross team score each day will also be awarded.
SKINS:
Optional cash skins game will be available on all days. $20 per team will be collected in the golf shop (Friday) & on the first/tenth tee (Saturday & Sunday). All flights will be combined for the skins game. If no skins clear on Friday or Saturday, all money will carry over to next day. If no skins clear on Sunday, all eagles on Sunday will split the skin money. If there are no eagles on Sunday, all birdies on hole #12 will split the skin money.
SHOOTOUT NUMBER:
To protect the integrity of the field, after round 2nd starts, we’ll select a number between 4 & 7. If you improve your 1st round score by the number selected you will be advanced a flight (moved from 3rd to 2nd). You must be within 7 shots of the lead of your flight at the start of the 2nd round to be moved. For example if you are in the 5th flight, and 15 shots behind going into the second round, you will not be moved. You cannot drop down in flight.

Optional wager that your team will win your flight. $100 cash wager per team.
All those that took the wager, will be eligible to be paid.
Winners will be paid a percentage of the flight purse. 1st – 50%, 2nd – 30%, 3rd – 20%.
