The number of Net Flights will depend on the overall number of participants and these flights will be competed from white tees using net scoring. 100% of handicaps apply for Net Flights and the Rule of 75 applies to all Net Flights — players whose Age + Handicap >= 75 may play gold tees. All Net Flight participants must have active GHIN handicaps and meet the MGA 2-in-30 posting requirement.
