Shoot Out
The Shoot Out for the overall winner will be conducted on Hole 10, 18, 10 and 9. Team members will play an alternate shot competition with the gross score minus 10% (as the strokes fall on card) of the combined handicaps determining the winner. The 10% of combined handicaps will be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The team will decide prior to play who hits the opening shot and then alternate each shot for the remainder of the holes. Play will be from the gold tees.
We will play an elimination format. Two teams will be eliminated on hole #10, and two teams will be eliminated on hole #18, one team on Hole #10 with the final two teams playing the hole #9 for the overall title. If teams are tied, then a chip off, blast off, will determine who advances.After play on the 9th hole, if two teams are tied we will proceed to the 100 yard marker on the 9th hole for a sudden death shootout to determine the overall Champion.
