Single Club Tournament Rules:

  1. We're going to play as many holes as we can before it's dark, then drive through the rest so y'all can see the rest of the course.
  2. Form your own teams of three or four (we'll see how many people we have). Try to balance the handicaps since it is a scramble. Mike and I reserve the right to swap players before the start of the round to attempt to do so if you cannot. :)
  3. Everyone on the team has to use the same club - if your group chooses 5-iron, you use a 5-iron. For every shot.
  4. Everyone on the team starts with three golf balls each. If you run out, you're out. You can borrow a ball from a teammate to continue playing. I recommend bringing a few Pinnacles or something.
  5. Laser range-finders and GPS are permitted.
  6. White tees, most likely, subject to a game-time decision.
  7. Scramble rules apply. You cannot change type of surface - fairway stays in fairway, rough in rough.
  8. Do not take this seriously at all. Have fun, and check out the course.
  9. You must use everyone's tee shot once every six holes. If you forget, don't sweat it, but try to remember.

Mike and I will buy the winning team a free round of drinks at the restaurant afterward.

Mike and I will fill in on teams of our own choosing and based on an as-needed basis and to attempt to balance the handicaps if one group has some higher handicappers or something.

I think there's a safe bet on the first person to run out of golf balls.....

Who's got two thumbs and will be that guy??

BTW, I think @mvmac and I will play as a team in the scramble, and if we win, y'all can split our meals.

We'll be at a disadvantage because we're only two players versus three or four.

.... Not sure that's much of a disadvantage, should be interesting nonetheless since I'll be in the cart for most of the competition

Bah. Your group will probably choose a mid-iron. Keep it in play. :)
