Men’s Night 7/14 — Chicago Back 9
For Men’s Night this week, we’ll be playing our Chicago format on the Back 9. Please record gross scores for all holes on scorecards with names clearly marked and turn in all completed cards to the Pro Shop.
Chicago Format:
Players start with a negative number of points (based on 18-hole course handicaps) then add positive points during their round. The idea is to get from the negative to the positive, clearing your “hurdle” by as many points as possible.
| Scratch and 1-handicappers start with -20 | 20 & 21 start with -10 |
| 2 & 3 handicappers start with -19 | 22 & 23 start with -9 |
| 4 & 5 start with -18 | 24 & 25 start with -8 |
| 6 & 7 start with -17 | 26 & 27 start with -7 |
| 8 & 9 start with -16 | 28 & 29 start with -6 |
| 10 & 11 start with -15 | 30 & 31 start with -5 |
| 12 & 13 start with -14 | 32 & 33 start with -4 |
| 14 & 15 start with -13 | 34 & 35 start with -3 |
| 16 & 17 start with -12 | 36+ start with -2 points |
| 18 & 19 start with -11 |
During the round, positive points are added on the following basis using gross hole scores:
- Double Bogey or worse = 0 points
- Bogey = 1 point
- Par = 2 points
- Birdie = 4 points
- Eagle = 8 points
