Rules of the Tournament (Updated January 8, 2023)
- Players will complete the hole before others in their group play.
- Players are allowed to use their own putters and bring their own balls or use the putters and balls on site
- For all tournament rounds, there is a 6 stroke limit. After your 5th putt, pick up the ball and move on.
- Players will start each hole in the tee-off area defined by the tee-off mat.
- The ball can be moved 6″ (or a little over one putter head length) away from any obstacle or wall for relief as long as it does not move the ball out of rough turf or provides a significantly better line for your next putt.
- No intentional chip shots to jump walls.
- The ball can only advance to the hole through the use of the putter head except for on the pool shot hole
- If the ball goes out of bounds, the ball will be placed at either the place it exited the hole or the start of the hole if there is not an adequate place to set the ball at the location where it went out of bounds. Take a +1 stroke penalty.
- If the ball returns back past the tee-off area, the ball will be reset at the start on the tee-off mat without a stroke penalty. If the ball exits the playing area by way of a handicap-accessible area on the hole, the ball will be reset at the location where it exited without a stroke penalty.
- On hole #17, the first “stroke” must be played with the supplied baseball bat
- On hole #18, if you get it in the toilet, you score your strokes but if you miss the toilet, you add one stroke to your final score
- All other applicable posted course rules apply if they are not listed above
