Hello Golfers,
It turned out to be a beautiful day for the PB tournament. Cool and windy to start but during the day it was sunny and just a bit breezy. We had 21 teams.Thank all of you for participating in today's tournament. I hope each player enjoyed the golf, fellowship and the food. Burningtree Country Club were excellent hosts and we are so appreciative that they allowed us to play on their beautiful course.

FORMAT
This is a 4 Person (3 best balls) team handicap (100% of individual Handicap) tournament with a Pumpkin Ball. Each team member will play their ball until holed. The gross score for each player will be entered on the scorecard and the app. The team’s three lowest net scores (as determined by the app) will be used as the team score on each hole. Teams will be ranked in order of team handicap, and then divided into flights for determination of flight winners and prize awards.
USGA Rules will apply. All BEGA Local Rules apply.
BB RULES
Each Team Member will play their ball until holed out. The gross scores for each player will be entered on the scorecard and the app. The team’s three lowest net scores will be used for a score on each hole.
PUMPKIN BALL RULES
The PB is its own separate tourney. The gross score of the PB is recorded as the ball is rotated among the team. No handicap is applied. Competition is among the teams that return their PB. The lowest gross score will be the winner. Each team will be provided with a Pumpkin Ball. This ball will be rotated from player to player in the order the team establishes on the first tee. This rotation will continue through the 18 holes played, provided the ball isn’t lost. Once the ball is lost the score for the Pumpkin Ball is stopped. In addition the player losing the PB will take the appropriate penalty strokes, will replace it with another ball for the BB part of the tourney and complete the hole. Please note the score of the person playing with the pumpkin ball will be recorded twice on each hole, once as the individual score and once as the pumpkin ball score.
