Blue Heron Rules and Course Information


JustGolf Mixed Modified Scramble
Blue Heron Pines Golf Club
Wednesday, June 27, 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 (69.2/120); Men play White tees (69.6/130); Seniors and 20+ CH play Green tees (67.6/126)
• Practice putting and chipping greens; free balls on the driving range.

Local Rules
• Replace divots if large; otherwise, repair with divot mix stored on cart.
• Waste areas (no rakes) are not hazards. 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, posts on the side of the fairways (Red=100, White=150, Blue=200).
• Cart rules: Carts must be driven only on the fairway. Do not drive or park in the rough.

Tipping
Please tip the cart boys.

Specific hole information: Yardage cards are on sale in the pro shop for $2. I would recommend you buy one. If you have an old one, the yardage information has not changed, so bring it with you to the tournament.

On the day I played, a number of green tee markers were located incorrectly on the red tee boxes. I requested that they be placed to reflect the distance on the scorecard. Assuming my request is honored, here is some general yardage information. The distances are in order: White/Green/Red.
