Championship Week and Scramble (September 14, 2021)

This week is the championship match and a scramble for the other teams.  For those who are in the scramble, remember to count your putts.  Odana asked us to make out tee times 8 minutes apart, while we are also starting earlier at 4:00. Prizes will be handed out after golf on Tuesday.

4:00 Kraus v. Hammen
Eric Durkee (13) v. Chris Hammen (14)
Gary Buehler (14) v. Patrick Hammen (14)

4:08 Kraus v. Hammen
Tom Stafford (14) v. Mike Blum (16)

4:24 Team Raymer

4:32 Team McEvilly

4:40 Team Downing

4:48 Team Larson

4:56 Team Jokisch

Reminders for the Scramble:
·      You must count at least one tee shot from each member of your group. On your scorecard, note who hit the tee shot you used on each hole.
·      Count your putts on each hole, and note them on the scorecard.

Rules (for those unfamiliar with the scramble format):
1.    Each foursome plays as a team and keeps one score for the team (including putts).
2.    After each golfer tees off, the team picks one shot to play next, and each golfer hits from there. The three people whose shots won't be used should retrieve their balls and drop within a club-length of the ball chosen to be played, but if the ball you are playing is in the rough or a hazard you must play from that rough or hazard. You may improve your lie (winter rules).
3.    Follow this same procedure until your team holes out.
4.  One shot/ball per golfer - if you only have three golfers, only three shots.
5.    When putting, the first person puts a mark down to identify where the others should putt from if the first person misses.
6.    At least one tee shot from each golfer in the foursome must be used on one of the nine holes. You do not need to decide whose tee shot is to be used until after everybody has teed off on a hole, unless you are forced to use a specific golfer’s tee shot on holes 7, 8, or 9 because you have not used one of their tee shots yet.

Tiebreakers
1.    Most holes-in-one
2.    Most eagles
3.    Most birdies
4.    Fewest putts
5.    Higher average team handicap (those without handicaps will not be counted)
6.    If still tied, prize money will be divided proportionally.
