Happy Hackers Scramble Format

Men drive from RED tee box.   Women drive from GOLD tee box.

Format: All players tee off and a shot is selected. The player who hit the selected shot marks the ball and picks up. The other players hit their second shot from within one club length of the mark and no nearer the hole. The player whose second shot is selected sits out the third shot; and so on until the ball is on the green. Easy to remember: If your shot is selected, mark the spot, pick up your ball and let everyone else hit. Once on the green, everyone gets to putt, including the player who hit the last shot onto the green.

On the putting green, place your ball within 3 inches of the mark, no nearer the hole. Continue putting until ball is holed or until the team score is 2 over par. Then you must pick up all balls and add one stroke to your score to bring it to 3 over par. Continue on to next hole. In placing the ball, you may not change the condition of the shot. If the chosen ball is in a penalty area, bunker or rough, all members of the team must play their shot from that condition. Course penalty rules apply as noted in the rules book available in the Pro shop.

Each team must use at least two of each player’s drives. Indicate on the scorecard which player’s drive was used. If your team has three players, then each player hits every shot and three of each players drives are used.

A ball is on the green when any part of the ball touches the putting green.

Play at a pace to complete the course in 2 hr and 15 min (average 15 minutes per hole). Be aware of your effect on other foursomes and as a courtesy, skip a hole and take a 3 over par if you have become a bottleneck.
