Shore Gate Rules and Course Information


JustGolf Men’s/Women’s Modified Scramble
Shore Gate Golf Club
Tuesday, May 15, 2012

Please print and bring to the tournament.

Scramble Rules
1. You must use 7 tee shots from each player (including par 3 holes).
2. Each player tees off on each hole. Select one tee shot and both players play their second shots from that spot, and so on, until the ball is holed. Once the ball is holed, the score for that hole is final.
3. Once you select the shot to be used, place a marker on the ground. The next shot by both players must be hit from within 12 inches of that marker, no closer to the hole. You may not use the 12 inches to improve your condition. Once the ball is on the green, both players must putt from the exact same spot.
4. Record one score for each hole.
5. There are no “gimmies;” hole every ball.

Return completed scorecard in person to the official scorer.
• Women play Red tees (71.1/126); Men play Gold tees (68.5/129); Seniors and 20+ CH play Gold/Red tees (67.0/125)
• Practice putting green; driving range ($5 charge for range balls).

Local Rules
• Repair divots with divot mix stored on cart.
• Environmentally sensitive areas are marked by red posts with green tops. Do not enter. Play as lateral hazards.
• Natural sand areas (no rakes provided) are played as through the green. You may ground your club.
• Flags on greens for hole location: Red (front), White (middle), Blue (back).
• Yardage measured to center of green: sprinkler heads, cart path, disks (Red=100, White=150, Blue=200, Yellow=250).
• Cart rules: For those holes where carts are permitted on the fairway, cart must be driven only on the fairway. Do not drive or park in the rough. If you have a health issue, the course will provide a handicap flag.
• Barber poles are placed on several holes at the 150-yard marker to let you know where to aim your drive.

Tipping
Please tip the cart boys.
