RULES OF PLAY

FORMAT:           4-Person Scramble (Gross Scoring)

Every player hits from the tee then the best ball is chosen and each player hits their next shot one club length from the chosen ball. Each best ball is chosen until the ball is holed.

TEES:                  Gentlemen will play BLUE TEES, Ladies will play SAND TEES

RULES:               USGA Rules will govern all play with the following local rule applying:

When a player’s ball cannot be found or is known or virtually certain to be out of bounds, the player may proceed as follows rather than proceeding under stroke and distance:

  • For two penalty strokes, the player may take relief by dropping the original ball or a substituted ball in this relief area (see Rule 14.3):
  • Two Estimated Reference Points:
    • Ball Reference Point: The point where the original ball: • Is estimated to have come to rest on the course, or • Last crossed the edge of the course boundary to go out of bounds.
    • Fairway Reference Point: The point of fairway of the hole being played that is nearest to the ball reference point but is not nearer the hole than the ball reference point.
  • For purposes of this Local Rule, “fairway” means any area of grass in the general area that is cut to fairway height or less.

* Preferred lies in the bunkers*

There will be no rakes on the course.  Players are encouraged to smooth the surface of the bunker with their foot or club before exiting the bunker. When a player’s ball lies in a bunker, the player may take free relief once by placing the original ball or another ball in and playing it from this relief area: reference point – spot of the original ball; size of relief area measured from the reference point – one club-length from the reference point, but with limits; limits on location of relief area – must not be nearer the hole than the reference point and must be in the same bunker.

CONTESTS:       Captain Crush on Hole #1, Beat-the-Pro on Hole #3, Hole-in-One on Hole #7, Long Drive on Hole #9, Tiger Woods on Hole #15, & Closest to the Pin on Hole #16.
