For Men’s Night this week, we’ll be playing our Chicago format on the Front 9. All players play from white tees and Rule of 75 players (age + handicap >= 75) may play golds. 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.

0 & 1 handicaps start with -20
2 & 3 start with -19
4 & 5 start with -18
6 & 7 start with -17
8 & 9 start with -16
10 & 11 start with -15
12 & 13 start with -14
14 & 15 start with -13
16 & 17 start with -12
18 & 19 start with -11
20 & 21 start with -10
22 & 23 start with -9
24 & 25 start with -8
26 & 27 start with -7
28 & 29 start with -6
30 & 31 start with -5
32 & 33 start with -4
34 & 35 start with -3
36+ start with -2 points

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
  • Albatross = 16 points

Match Play Next Round Deadline 9/26

The deadline for Elite Eight matches in the Main and Wildcard brackets is Thursday, September 26th. Contact [email protected] or call the Pro Shop (301) 292-1100 if you need your opponent’s contact information.

MGA Tuesday: Dilemma, Match Play & Club Championship

Men’s Night 9/5 — 1-Man Scramble with White/Red Dilemma on the Back 9

For Men’s Night this week, we’ll be playing our 1-Man Scramble format with one additional twist. For all tee shots, players may either:

  • Play from White Tees, hitting 2 tee shots and selecting the best one 
  • Or play from Red Tees and only have one tee shot that must be used

This choice (2 tee shots / choose best off White or 1 must-use tee shot off Red) is in play on each hole and you may make a different decision on each hole. Choose wisely!

All 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. shots follow our traditional 1-Man Scramble format — 2 shots from the next position, choose the best, and so on until you have completed the hole. 50% of Back 9 course handicaps apply to calculate net scores — low net score wins.

Match Play Next Round Deadline 9/26

The deadline for Elite Eight matches in the Main and Wildcard brackets is Thursday, September 26th. Contact [email protected] or call the Pro Shop (301) 292-1100 if you need your opponent’s contact information.
