December 14th - 4 Man Christmas Schamble
December Tournament Format – 4-Man Shamble (SHOTGUN START)
This is a 4-man team game
The team uses the two best balls on each hole (Gross & Net) to get a total score for each hole
All four players hit a tee shot on each hole
The team selects the best tee shot, and all players play their OWN ball from that tee shot until holing out. This is NOT a scramble. Play your own ball where it lies.
Each player must place their ball within one club length of the selected tee shot, staying in the same playing condition:
Fairway stays in fairway
Rough stays in rough
Bunker stays in bunker
Penalty area stays in penalty area
Each player plays their own ball into the hole from the group's selected tee shot and records their individual GROSS score on the scorecard and in Golf Genius
Scoring
Players must record their individual GROSS score on the scorecard and in Golf Genius
The TEAM records the combined two best gross and two best net scores per hole. GOLF GENIUS WILL KEEP TRACK OF THIS
Drive Requirement
Each player must contribute at least three (3) tee shots during the round.
Handicaps
Players will be playing to 80% of their overall handicap per USGA recommendation for this tournament format in the NET scoring
Extra Games: Skins & Polies
Gross & Net skins are available in this tournament and are individual skins.
Net Skins are capped at 18 strokes per player (1 stroke per hole)
Polies on par – 3’s if your tee shot lands within the length of the flagstick to the hole – you win a polie
PACE OF PLAY
Play ready golf
Pick up if your score is going to be greater than the lowest two gross and net scores on the hole
If there is a wait on the Par 3, once your group is on the green, waive up the group behind you
On hole 1, waive up the group on the tee once you are all on the green. If you are on the tee on Hole 1 and not going for the green, hit your tee shots before the player trying to drive the green hits. That person(s) should hit last after being waived up
If your group falls behind
After you are done holing out go hit your tee shot while the rest of the group putts out
Get back in position
Sign up deadline is midnight Wednesday December 3rd, 2025
