Men’s Night 5/26 + Match Play Round 1

Men’s Night 5/26 — Shootout Front 9 @ 4:30 PM

For Men’s Night this week, the 2nd edition of the 2022 Shootout series is back! For our Shootout format on the Front 9, all players meet on the 1st tee at 4:30 PM — please be a few minutes early so we can organize everyone’s Front 9 course handicaps. 

As a full group (think 25-some), all competitors play #1 together (please mark your ball 😂). The low 9 net scores on #1 progress to the 2nd tee. A chip-off will be used to break any ties for who proceeds to #2 (top 9 low net from #1).

On holes 2-9, we eliminate 1 player with the highest net score on each hole: i.e. 9 competitors play #2, 8 competitors play #3…all the the way down to 2 players on the 9th hole. Chip-offs decide tied-for-high-score holes.

The last man standing after #9 has been played is the Shootout winner.

For this week’s Shootout festivities, once again, our special guest Shootout referee is back—current Springfield Golf & Country Club member, 2019 Stearns Cup Champion, former MGA Competition Chair, DC United backer, and all-around actually good guy—Mr. Mike Lyons. Mike will handle all handicap calculations, rulings, and chip-off decisions for elimination.
