Event 8 - Golf
Format: 4 Man Scramble
Location:
TBD
Rules:
Bogey Max
The max score your team can get on a hole is a bogey.
If you miss your par shot, whether a putt, chip, or anything else, pick up your ball and move on.
Tees
Each team starts from the White tees.
If your team birdies (or better) a hole, move back to the Blue tees.
If your team pars a hole, remain on the same tee you played the previous hold.
If your team bogeys a hole, move up a tee box.
White tees are the furthest forward you may go.
Blue tees are the furthest back you need to go.
Fundraiser
This could go away if we raise $10k before Man Games.
We are raising funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
One of our friends and Man Games competitor - Nate Snarr - lost his sister-in-law, Katie, to Leukemia this past December. We are raising money in her name that will go towards treatments, cures, and financial aid for those fighting blood cancers.
On a Par 5:
If the team contributes $100, you'll get to play from the Red tees.
If the team contributes $200, you'll get to play from 300 yards out.
If the team contributes $400, you'll get to play from the 200 yard marker.
If the team contributes $600, you'll get to play from the 100 yard marker.
If the team contributes $800, you'll get to putt from 25 feet away.
If the team contributes $1,000 or more, your team gets a zero on the hole.
You can still play the hole, you would just have a zero on your scorecard.
These are per team amounts, not per person.
In the event of a tie
We will use a scorecard playoff.
