The venue for this month's tournament is Four Man Scramble (see the rules below). Changes may be expected. The pairings, tee times and rules at game time take precedence over these posted on the web site. The first tee time is 0731. Please check in at least fourty-five minutes prior to your tee time. The Pro Shop will have the pairings and tee times by Thursday, 21 Feb. For those who requested early, middle or late tee times, with the nature of the Blind Draw and all that it entails...we were not able to accommodate your request for this venue.

Teams . Players will be divided into four handicap flights; A, B, C & D (flighted by indexes).   After flighting the tournament field into four groups, the Tournament Chair will direct the computer to divide the entire field of players into equal four man teams, each with an A, B, C, and D player.

Team Handicap: The Team Handicap will be determined by adding each player's handicap and multiplying that sum by 15%.

Format: Each team member hits from the designated tee (white). By mutual agreement, the best ball is selected. Each member plays from within one club length of the selected ball, but no nearer the hole. You may not use the one club length to move from the fringe to the green, from out of bounds to inbounds, nor to get relief from a hazard. If you elect to play a ball from a bunker, the ball shall be played as it lies by the player who hit into the bunker. Then, all other members must rake and place their ball in the same area. This procedure shall continue until the ball is on the putting green.

On the putting green: Place a marker next to the selected ball. All putts are made from this spot. Mark and remove all balls that have been putted. Continue this procedure until a putt is holed out. No practice putting. Move to the next tee.

Team captain: The "A" player is the Team Captain and will ensure:

-Each player contributes three tee shots, mark card.

-Recording of the team gross score on each hole.

-All team members sign scorecard.

-Completed score card is turned in to the tournament scorekeeper.

Substitutes: If a team is missing a player, the following applies:

• "A" player missing: "B" player hits 2 shots through 18 holes. Team uses highest handicap from the "A" flight list (12).
• "B" player missing: "C" player hits 2 shots through 18 holes. Team uses highest handicap from the "B" flight list (16).
• "C" player missing: "D" player hits 2 shots through 18 holes. Team uses highest handicap from the "C" flight list (23).
• "D" player missing: "C" player hits one extra shot tee to green and one extra putt on each hole. Team uses lowest handicap in the "D" flight (24).

Par 3 holes: Only the first tee shot by a substitute will count for "closest to the pin".
