Handicaps & Scoring
What is a Net Double Bogey
Net Double Bogey is the maximum allowable hole score for WGA Events. When the format of play allows, you can pick up once you have reached your net double bogey limit.
How is Net Double Bogey Calculated
Net Double Bogey is a Gross Double Bogey + any handicap strokes received on a specific hole.
Local Rules
2x2 Sprinkler Head Rule (**New**)
The 2x2 Rule allows for free relief from sprinkler heads within 2 club lengths of the green, that are in your intended line of play.
Relief: If the sprinkler head is within 2 club lengths of the green, and your ball is within 2 club lengths of the sprinkler head, and it is in your intended line of play, find your nearest point of relief, then drop the ball from knee height. If the ball does not roll closer to the hole, the ball is in play.

Hole #6
Hole #16
