TEE CHOICE

White tee’s are tournament default tees - option to change:

 

There are many facets of the game that contribute to one’s score including distance, course management, iron play, chipping and putting. As much as we would like a black and white and fair criteria to dictate the tees that players can play in association events, we have struggled to find one. All players are different and we have established the following criteria for 2023:


GOLD TEE

You may play if you fall under any of these 2 qualifications

  • 60 years old and index of 14.5+
  • Or, Index below 14.5 with an average 5 iron distance of 155 yards or below with officer approval (USGA guidance based on gold distance)

 

BLUE TEE

  • Open to all members that have not moved from default tees to gold in another event.  If you needed to move up, you can no longer move back.  GWB events not included.
  • Our preference is players stay at tournament tee's. If you want to move, we suggest only players with an index of 14.7 or below to target bogey or better play.

 

HANDICAP

100% Handicap calculated from tee box played.

This also determines team flight

The maximum individual handicap for this event is 30.  PBGA uses the World Handicap System. WHS requires full precision to be maintained in intermediary calculations. Rounding is performed only once and as the last step.  

Members without a handicap will be assigned by the committee.

Players are encouraged to sign up as single players, we will match you up.
