My league plays a Ryder Cup format with 1 day 1/2 way through the season and the second day on the last day of league with the winning team getting 40 bones each. Any ideas on how to break a tie if the teams are tied after the second day?

In the Ryder cup, the holder of the cup from the previous matches retains the cup if there is a tie. Other than that, each team pick one person and have a playoff match. That way everyone that played can follow and root for their team.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

would you play a full 18 playoff or just first player to win X number of holes (like maybe 2 or 3 holes)

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

If you want big pressure, then sudden death.

Hey guys - just bumping this in case anyone else can think of anything. We're thinking since the last day is 2-man best ball, we'll make every team post a score for each hole and do aggregate totals for all teams.

Instead of one player have three, one-on-one matches play sudden death. Thats how we do it in our Colonial Cup matches. It has not come to that since I have been playing, but it would be damn exciting.

What you do guys is if it looks like being a draw you get all your teamates, wives and girlfriends to run all over the green before your opponent has putted out.
