Our Match Play
Tournament will again be played in addition to our regular scheduled events. In
early March we will draw the brackets and announce the first round pairings. The
tournament is single elimination competition, match play with full handicaps. It
is the responsibility of the competitors to contact each other, schedule a tee
time and complete the match prior to the deadlines listed below.
To use handicaps correctly you subtract the lower handicap from the higher and
use the difference. Example: Arnold is a 25 and Jack is a 10. This would result
in Arnold getting one stroke on handicap holes 1-15. All other holes would be
played straight up.
Round 1 finish by May 3, Round 2 by June 14, Round 3 by July 12, Round 4 by Aug 9, Round 5 by Sept 6.
