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.

      Rule Change on Incorrect Scorecard.

      By DaveP043 ·

      You should read section 5A(5)a of the Committee Procedures.  The Committee has the authority to define when and how a scorecard has been "returned".  While the new method isn't specifically mentioned, the PGA Tour is definitely operating within the Rules in making this change.

      18-Hole Approach Shot Game

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I tried this again today. Again, I used the random picker app on my phone and I set the targets into my SC4. I used carry distance not total distance.  I did everything the same except today I decided to print out my actual shot distances for you.  Target Club Actual Difference Score Score vs Par 90 GW 101.4 11.4 Double 2 95 GW 93.9 -1.1 Birdie -1 100 GW 102.4 2.4 Birdie -1 105 GW 100.6 -4.4 Par 0 110 GW 108.2 -1.8 Birdie -1 115 PW 128.3 13.3 Double 2 120 PW 117.8 -2.2 Birdie -1 125 PW 125 0 Eagle -2 130 PW 130.9 0.9 Eagle -2 135 9I 126.7 -8.3 Bogey 1 140 9I 139.2 -0.8 Eagle -2 145 8I 125 -20 Double 2 150 8I 138 -12 Double 2 155 7I 156.7 1.7 Birdie -1 160 7I 172.1 12.1 Double 2 165 6I 168.3 3.3 Par 0 170 6I 177.6 7.6 Bogey 1 175 6I 169.7 -5.3 Par 0 Average miss     -0.18 yards     Av of Absolute     6.03 yards                       Total is one over par.   1 I did much better today in terms of hitting some close enough to make some eagles. The eagles really help your score.  The average miss is just the difference between target and actual carry distance, which I guess could be used to see if I'm more likely longer or shorter. Looks like I'm about equally off long and short. The average of the absolute valve of my misses kind of tells me how close to the target I usually am.

      If the PGA Tour wants to distance itself from the integrity of the Official Rules of Golf, then fine.

      PGA Tour amending rule on incorrect scorecards (aka the Jordan Spieth rule), effective immediately Jun 18, 2024 | 8:31 AM Good change. Ok, lemme have it die hards!

      Amazing US Open to watch. Of course I was rooting for Bryson, but a little part of me wanted a W for Rory. Hope this fuel Rory to win a major soon.  Interesting to see how much is going to take for Aberg to win his first major.  Scheffler is human, thank god.. we need more tight final rounds like this.
