Rules,
Embarrassed to ask this question, but wondering if my CHP is a typo. I am
usually in the 20s. I need all the help I can get :-)

SOGAGG COLLEAGUES,
The time is nigh for Mountain High III on Friday, July 31 at Mount Woodson Golf
Course…! We have three foursomes locked and loaded with the first tee time at
0942. This hosted day for the Society consists of:
* The round of golf (no check-in required)
* A hearty breakfast (starting around 0830-0845 or whenever you can make it)
* Drinks and snacks at the turn
* Lunch
· Note (1): The password to provide when you order is “SOGAGG.”
Pretty original don’t you think?
· Note (2): *** White shirts with red hat. ***
(Bring $15 for prize money and a couple of bucks for other games.
Just for fun, the 12 players are grouped in four flights based on handicap
indexes and will play from the Blue (2), White (6), Gold (2), or Red (1) tees.
All foursomes are playing the same game for honors and prize $, while each
foursome plays a different game to add a bit more revelry during the round.
Here’s the lineup:

Keep your eyes peeled for the four course proximity contests (Longest Putt on
3; Closest-to-the-pin on 6 & 16; and Longest Drive on 12).
The three foursomes will compete against each other for prize money. Each
player will contribute $15 to the pot, yielding a pot of $15x12= $180. The pot
will be awarded as:
· 1st $80 ($20 per player)
· 2nd $40 ($10 per player)
· 3rd $20 ($5 per player)
· Each of 4 proximity contest winners: $10.
With thanks to Rules and sHank: The competition for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place
will be the team game of “Best 2 of 4.” That is, the lowest 2 net scores of
each foursome’s 4 net scores will be recorded and summed for the team’s score.
Lowest team score wins.
In addition, each foursome will compete internally, each playing a different
game as follows: See the definitions below:
Team 1: Net Skins. $5 each player for the pot. (Usually, we don’t do “net”
skins, but it should work for one foursome.)
Team 2: Four Ball. $1 Front Nine, $1 Back Nine, & $1 18 holes for the pot.
Team 3: Match Play. $1 Front Nine, $1 Back Nine, & $1 18 holes for the pot.
Skins definition: Holes one through 16 are assigned one skin each. Holes 17
and 18 are assigned two skins each, for a total of 20 skins. Each player
contributes $5 for the pot.
Toss a coin to determine who tees off first. Each player tees off in turn, and
normal stroke play continues until each player holes out. The player with the
lowest score on the first hole wins the skin for that hole. If there is no
lowest player – because two or more of the golfers are tied for the lowest
score on the hole – the skin is rolled over to the next hole. Tee off and play
the next hole and continue through the remaining holes until the round is
finished. Keep track of who wins the skins for each hole as you play. Total
the number of skins. If the total number of skins won is less than 20, conduct
a closest-to-the-hole putting contest from about 40 feet. The winner of the
putting contest wins the remaining skins. Award each player $1.00 from the pot
for each skin won.
Four Ball Definition: So how does scorekeeping work in a four ball match?
We'll call our two teams White Team, consisting of Golfers A and B (partners);
and Green Team, consisting of Golfers C and D (partners).
On the first hole, all four golfers tee off, and all four golfers in the match
play their own golf balls until holed. The partners compare NET scores: Which
of them made the better score on the hole? If Golfer A scores net 4 and Golfer
B scores net 6 on the first hole, then White Team’s score on that hole is 4.
If Green Team gets a net 3 from Golfer C and a net 6 from Golfer D, the Green
Team's score is 3. And Green Team, in this example, has the lowest score on the
first hole, 3 to 4. Play continues and after 18 holes, the team with the
overall lowest score is the winning team. If the teams are tied after 18
holes, the game ends with a tie.
Match Play Definition: So how does scorekeeping work in a match? We'll call
our two teams Green Team, consisting of Golfers A and C; and White Team,
consisting of Golfers B and D. Golfer A (Green Team) competes against Golfer B
(White Team) while Golfer C (Green Team) competes against Golfer D (White Team).
On the first hole, all four golfers tee off, and all four golfers in the match
play their own golf balls until holed. The competitors compare NET scores:
Which of them made the better score on the hole? If Golfer A (Green Team)
scores net 4 and Golfer B (White Team) scores net 6 on the first hole, then
Green Team’s win is recorded as two points and White Team records zero points.
If Golfer A and Golfer B net scores are the same, each team records one point.
If Golfer B’s net score is less than Golfer A’s net score, White Team records 2
points and Green Team records zero points. Golfers C and D conduct a similar
competition and scoring. Play continues and after 18 holes, the team with the
greater number of points is the winning team. If the teams are tied after 18
holes, the game ends with a tie.
Best to all,
/Ace
