I will post the application tomorrow for the JustGolf Stableford tournament
scheduled for Monday, August 15 at the Bay Course at Seaview Golf Club. If you
have never played a Stableford, all you really need to know is that you will
play your own ball and record the gross score on each hole for both you and
your partner. I will convert your scores to Stableford points at the end of
your round. Both players’ points count on each hole (aggregate scoring).
Below is a more detailed explanation.
A Stableford is a stroke-play competition in which the high
total wins, not the low. That's because in Stableford, your final score is not
your stroke total, but rather the total points you have earned for your scores
on each individual hole.
This is a two-man or two-woman team tournament in which both
players’ Stableford points will be added together. There are no negative
points – if your partner has a bad hole, he will not drag down the team score. The
JustGolf Stableford tournament is a net and gross tournament
and awards points as follows:
• Net or gross double bogey or worse: 0
• Net or gross bogey: 1 point
• Net or gross par: 2 points
• Net or gross birdie: 3 points
• Net or gross eagle: 4 points
• Net or gross double eagle (albatross): 5 points
Players will receive 100% of their Course Handicap. The
maximum Course Handicap is 18 for men, 24 for women.
