Scoring

Match / team play with handicaps

(5) points per hole

(1) point vs each opponent per golfer (4 possible pts)

(1) point for team score

bonus: +(5) possible

+ (2) pts each if you tie or beat your ind handicap

+ (1) pts if team ties or beats handicap

*all scorecards will be marked each week with handicaps and stroke

Holes noted for each golfer (for you morons that still don’t know how to keep score!!)

*2006 rules change for double par – if you pick up and take

Double par on a hole, you cannot win any points for the hole.

Handicaps

Handicaps will be adjusted weekly and establshised by best (10) out of (15) scores, going back to last year. There is a handicap page on the league website to track your scores/handis.

Playoff handicaps will be determined by the lower handi of the 2 halves (to prevent sandbagging)

Subs

If you need a sub, you are responsible for getting one. There is a large list of subs on the players page on the website.

Please choose a sub off our league list or at least get someone with an established handicap. Subs cannot win bonus points nor can you get a team bonus if you have a sub playing. No subs rule in full effect for playoffs!!

· ghost sub

If you cannot find a sub and must play alone, we will once again be using the “ghost” scorecard to score the match. The “ghost” scorecard that is picked cannot be your group’s card and cannot accumulate any bonus points for the match.

However, “ghost” scores can only account for 75% of the scored points. For example if you and the “ghost” took 30 pts, you would only be able to win 22.5 pts. It is in your best interest to find a sub vs. Using the ghost.

Team no shows

If neither player shows up, the team that shows will receive 25 pts. They can also accumulate another 10 pts if they hit or tie their handicaps. (5 pts per person)

Rules

· usga rules, with league modifications as stated below.

· lost ball is (1) stroke penalty in the vicinity where it was lost. In playoffs, lost ball is stroke and distance and all Usga rules are in effect.

· #12 lateral hazard off tee: please drop in the drop zone by the red tees (across hazard) or line of flight if ball hooks into the hazard after intital clearance.

· winter rules as always. Move em’ only in the fairway. Lift, clean, and place depending on the weather.

· out of bounds is stroke and distance as always.

· lateral hazards (red stakes) are (1) stroke penalty. Drop line of flight as far back as you want,but no closer to the hole.

· railroad tie posts on some holes define a lateral hazard. If the ball is in the hazard, a (1) stroke penalty is incurred if the posts are in your way and you cannot swing clearly.(you

Can always try and hit out of a hazard) if you are outside the hazard and the post impedes your swing, you get a free drop (2) club lengths or until the post is not interfering.

Please talk with your opponents to determine this ruling as a group.

· fences lining course are o.b. As marked on the scorecards. No free drops if the fence interferes with your swing.

· #4 o.b. Marker is anything right of the cartpath for those that want to try and cut the corner on #3.

· all scorecards are final once turned in (aka, the jackie Recount rule). It is your responsibility to make sure scorecards are marked accurately and bonus pts are added, not the responsibility of the league!

· brewsters and the brewsters league president are not responsible for any damages caused to houses from errant shots.

It’s up to you to call your opponent out for a rules infraction or warn them. If you are in doubt about a ruling, play a provisional ball and bring it to our attention afterwards.
