Tournament Rules

Tournament Ruled Under USGA Stroke Play

ALL ALCOHOL BEVERAGES MUST BE PURCHASED THROUGH THE GOLF COURSE FACILITIES. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

The tournament format is over a 54-hole challenge and will follow a 420 SHAMBLE Modified Stable Ford scoring format. Each foursome with tee off and select the choice shot and play the second shot from there. After the second shots, the Two (2) member team will select their choice shot and then play their own ball through the hole completion – 420 SHAMBLE. Each Player will have their gross score recorded along with their individual points scored for the Two (2) person team total, plus or minus.

Individual/Team points are earned as follows:

Hole Played Points
Bogey 1 point
Par 2 points
Birdie 4 points
Eagle 5 points

There are NO MULLIGANS are allowed. Bumps, within a standard strip size, are allowed in the fairway only; otherwise play the ball as it lies. All putts must be putted out! NO GIVE-ME’S! SINCE A DOUBLE BOGEY SCORES NO POINTS, PLEASE PICK UP WHEN YOU OR TEAM REACHS DOUBLE BOGEY IN AN EFFORT TO MOVE PLAY ALONG. We will be playing all hazards, out of bounds and lost balls as a lateral hazard – one stroke penalty without loss of distance.

EXCHANGE SCORE CARDS WITH THE OTHER TEAM IN YOUR GROUP, RECORD EACH TEAM’S GROSS HOLE-BY-HOLE SCORE, POINTS EARNED, SIGN AND RETURN IT TO THE “RESPECTIVE PRO-SHOP COUNTER”, PROMPTLY WHEN THE ROUND IS OVER. LOST SCORE CARDS WILL BE SCRATCHED FROM THAT DAY’S ROUND AND MAY BECOME INELIGIBLE FOR TOTAL TOURNAMENT AWARD PRIZES.

Ties breakers, if needed will be a scorecard play-off beginning with the #1 handicap hole. Please repair all divots, ball marks, rake sand traps and follow golf cart driving directions and instructions.

DRIVE CARTS WITH CAUTION, CARE, AND INTELLIGENCE!

SOFT SPIKES ARE MANDATORY THROUGHOUT THE TOURNAMENT.
