Challenges Offered:
| Closest to the Pin |
Usually on Par 3's, the winner is whoever hits the ball closest to the hole, with one shot. Shot does not count if it is a mulligan or a second tee shot. |
| Closest to the Line |
A line would be painted on a hole of choice, and the winner would be whoever hit the tee shot closest to the line painted within the fairway. Shot does not count if it is a mulligan, or second shot due to loss of first. |
| Longest Drive |
Placed on a hole to be determined by tournament organizers. The winner is determined by whoever hits their ball further. The drive has to be on the fairway to be considered the longest drive, and cannot be a mulligan or second shot due to loss of first. |
| Closest to the Pin in Three |
Usually placed on our 18th hole(longest hole), the winner would be determined by whoever hits the ball closest to the pin within three shots. There can be no mulligans during the process of getting to the hole. |
| "5th Ball" |
This challenge only happens during a scramble formatted tournament. Each team is given a pink, blue or yellow colored ball. The ball is playd by a different member of the team on consecutive holes. For example, player one plays the ball on the first hole, player two on the second and so forth. The winner is determined two different ways. Whichever team has the lowest score for the ball throughout the 18 holes wins. If no team finished with the round with the ball, the winner is determined by the team that lasted the longest with the colored ball. |
