***REQUIRED TEAM BUY-IN***
ALL TEAMS ARE REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE TEAM PRIZE FUND AND SKINS GAME ($50 PRIZE FUND / $50 SKINS GAME)
FORMAT:
The event format is a two-person modified scramble (shamble). Each player hits a tee-shot, the team selects the best tee-shot and each player plays their own ball from that point until it is holed. The lower of the two scores, is the team score for the hole.
All TEAM HANDICAPS will be determined by taking 60% of Player A’s course handicap and 40% of Player B and combining them to create a team course handicap . All FLIGHTS will be determined by total team handicap index. The maximum difference in handicap index is 10 strokes but if members want to enter with a partner whose handicap is more than this difference, the higher handicap will be adjusted downward.
60/40 CALCULATION IN DETAIL:
Calculations for this type of events are based on Individual Course Handicap, each player gets a Course Handicap Calculated, we then take the sum of 60% of the low handicap and 40% of the high handicap
- Team player A has an index of 8.3 and Team Player B has an index of 14.5, they play on a course with a slope of 132, course rating of 70.2 and par of 71.
- Player Course Handicaps are 9 (8.3*(132/113)+(70.2-71)) and 16 (14.5*(132/113)+(70.2-71))
- Team Course Handicap is 9*0.6 + 16*0.4 = 11.8 => Rounded to 12
If you are playing for the first time in our tournament with an existing GHIN index outside of Premier Golf Club or with another USGA handicapping service, you will receive 80% of your handicap index until you fulfill your 3 round requirement to establish an official PGC tournament index.
