Golf Tournament Rules and Hole Contests

Scramble Rules

1. During today’s outing, a “shotgun start” means play will begin when teams reach their assigned tees and the fairway is clear. Team A precedes Team B.
2. Each team member will hit every shot. Play should continue from the location of the best ball rather than playing each player’s ball. After the team members decide which shot they will use, all players will hit from that location only. This procedure is repeated until the ball is in the hole.
3. Each team member will place his/her ball within one club length of the selected shot—no closer. If the selected shot is played from a hazard, sand trap, rough, second cut of rough, fairway or fringe of the green, the ball will be placed within one club length of the selected shot. However, it must remain in the hazard, sand trap, rough, second cut of rough, fairway or fringe of the green.
4. In the interest of time:

• • • Be aware of your group’s pace of play; maintain your interval in relation to the group ahead.
    • Please play ready to golf; whoever is ready to hit, go ahead and hit.
    • Two-putt maximum per hole.

5. Mulligans will be sold for $20 each or as part of a bundle package. Mulligan tokens are hard candies. In order to receive a one-time “do-over,” golfers may eat or discard their mulligan token. Mulligans are performed on the honor system. There is a limit of one mulligan per golfer.
6. Each group will be assigned a Forecaddie. Their base pay is covered in event entry, but additional gratuity is encouraged.  They will help navigate your group around the golf course.
