CLOSEST TO THE PIN
If your tee shot is on the green and closest to the Pin/Hole, write your name on the marker card and place the marker in the ground on the spot where your ball came to rest. Once the marker has been placed in the ground, it should stay there until someone else hits a closer shot. Use the flagstick as a measuring rod if it is a close call. Then, that person should repeat the procedure of writing their name on the card below the other name(s) and place the marker at the spot.
LONGEST DRIVE
If your drive is in the fairway and the longest, write your name on the marker card and place the marker in the ground on the spot where your ball lays. Once the marker has been placed in the ground, it should stay there until someone else makes a longer drive. Then, that person should repeat the procedure of writing their name on the card below the other name(s) and place the marker at the spot.

GOLF SCRAMBLE RULES
Four Person Scramble Format
- A scramble means that all team members tee off on each hole and then decide which tee shot they like the best and mark the spot with a tee or ball marker.
- The other team members pick up their balls and place them within one club length (no closer to the hole) of the marked spot. Each team member hits their next shot from the chosen spot.
- This procedure is followed on every shot for the remainder of the hole, including putts. The ball should be marked on the putting green.
- Putts need to be placed within 3 inches of the marked spot (no closer to the hole). The first ball to go in the hole is counted for the team score.
- You may lift, clean and place your ball within one club length on the selected shot; however, you may not move your ball out of a hazard (including bunkers), out of the rough, from the fairway or rough to the apron or from the apron to the green.
- Men tee off from the white tees and women from the gold tees.
- The Tournament will be scored using the “Peoria” method of scoring. Your team’s score on six secret holes will determine your handicap for the tournament. (See Below)
- Please turn scorecards in to the Tournament Director. Prizes will be given at the end of the tournament.
GOLF ETIQUETTE
- Please rake all marks made in sand bunkers. Please leave the rakes in the bunkers.
- Leave the putting green as soon as you have holed out.
- Do not play until the players in front of you are out of range.
- Please observe all local course rules.
- Enjoy the day!
