TOURNAMENT RULES
2-MAN SCRAMBLE
All players play from their assigned tees as listed on their scorecards. Select the best shot. Both players then play from the position of the selected ball by placing within one club length of that spot no closer to the hole. A ball must be kept in the same condition (i.e. if a ball is in the rough, it must be placed in the rough). Use this procedure until the ball is holed out.
2-MAN BEST BALL
Each player plays their own ball. The team score is the lowest Net score on the hole. Each player receives their full handicap.
CHICAGO
Each player receives a preliminary number of points based on their individual handicap. 39 = Players MVMGA Handicap. For example, a 1-handicapper starts with 38 points, a 2-handicapper 37 points, a 3-handicapper 36 points, and so forth. Playing points are awarded based on the score a competitor receives on each hole. A bogey wins one point, a par two points, a birdie four points, an eagle eight points and a double eagle or hole-in-one is 16 points. The winner is the player who earns the most playing points in excess of his preliminary point allotment.
Stroke play rules apply. There are no mulligans, gimmies, exceptions or moving the ball. The ball is played where it lies unless it enters a hazard or becomes unplayable. Each golfer plays his own ball throughout the round.
2-MAN TEXAS SCRAMBLE
All players play from their assigned tees as listed on their scorecards. Each player hits a tee shot on each hole. The best ball, as determined by the captain, is selected for the second shot. Each member of the team hits his or her shot from that spot. Each player then plays his own ball until it is holed.
2-DAY RINGER
The 2-Day Ringer Tournament is a multi-round golf tournament that results in one 18-hole score per player. Each golfer plays 2 rounds and posts their scores on each hole per round. The lowest of each round’s scores per hole are recorded will represent the final score.
MVMGA POINTS SHOOTOUT TOURNAMENT SYSTEM
The Tuff Country Cup consists of a yearlong point system and a final tournament to be played in September 2016. To qualify for this tournament a player must earn a minimum of 40 Tuff Country Cup points. The Tuff Country Cup pays cash prizes in three places: 1st Place, 2nd Place and 3rd Place.
Each player receives a preliminary number of points based on their individual handicap. 39 = Course Handicap. For example, a 1-handicapper starts with 38 points, a 2-handicapper 37 points, a 3-handicapper 36 points, and so forth. Playing points are awarded based on the score a competitor receives on each hole. A bogey wins one point, a par two points, a birdie four points, an eagle eight points and a double eagle 16 points. The winner is the player who earns the most playing points in excess of his preliminary point allotment.
Stroke play rules apply. There are no mulligans, gimmies, exceptions or moving the ball. The ball is played where it lies unless it enters a hazard or becomes unplayable. Each golfer plays his own ball throughout the round.
1-MAN SCRAMBLE
The player tees off twice, selects a preferred drive, and marks its location. Two balls are played from within one club length of the mark, no nearer the hole (six (6) inches from a mark on the putting surface). A ball may not be moved when it is to be played from within a hazard or a bunker, or is clearly unplayable. If a player elects to play a ball from this condition, the first ball must be played as it lies, the second ball may be placed. The condition of the ball may not be changed (e.g. no moving from the rough to the fairway, fringe to green, etc.). This format is repeated until the ball is holed.
