THE DOGFIGHT

The dopfight is essentially a creative handicap game.​

​

Eligibility

  • After playing a minimum of four rounds to establish four scores, an average of  the top four of the last eight rounds is used to calculate a player's "hurdle."

  • Until a person has 4 scores posted they cannot win the dog fight.

  • Once four or more rounds are scored a player's average cannot change by more than two points up or down after each single round.

​

Scoring

  • Bogeys = l point

  • Pars = 2 points

  • Birdies = 4 points

  • Eagles = 8 points

  • Albatross = 12 points

​

**** The player who clears his "hurdle" by the most points wins. ****

​

Tee Boxes

  • Players under 60 shall hit from the blue tee boxes, over 60 may hit from the white tees.  Over 70 can hit from the combination tees (whits and green).

  • If a player wishes to tee off further back please feel free to do so.

 

Rules

  • USGA Rules apply.

  • As we use a modified shot gun start, player is allowed to hit a second ball off the first tee (par 4 or 5 only).  If player opts to hit a second ball, the second ball must be played.

  • If you think the ball is out of bounds on white stakes, please hit a provisional ball.

  • As the goal is to get to be better players, please putt out on each hole.

  • If you wish to be respected by your fellow players, please extend the same respect to everyone.

  • You may keep your USGA scores for handicap purposes with the Club.  Additional fee may apply. 

 

Games within Foursomes

  • Side games are entirely up to the players in a foursome or group.

  • Make sure everyone understands the rules clearly to avoid confusion.

  • Please do not make up the rules as you go along (we have a couple guys that are good at that).

 

Club Toss

  • Make sure the coast is clear and you only throw your own club.

  • Tossing a club into a body of water is the players’ choice.

  • Players tossing clubs that get stuck in a tree resulting in slow play are accessed a 2 stroke penalty.
