hookem9312 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Going to vegas for a golf trip with the guys. Details: 4 players (HCPs 4, 8, 10, 15) Rounds: Day 1: 36 holes at Wolf Creek round 1 = cart vs cart best ball match play round 2 = cart vs cart best ball scramble stroke play (same teams as round 1) Day 2: 18 holes at Reflection Bay round = 6, 6, and 6 (breaking the round into 3, 6 hole games with rotating teams) Day 3: 36 holes at Paiute (Wolf and Sun) round 1 = 18 hole skins round 2 = cart vs car best ball match play (same teams as day 1 round 1) Trying hard to figure out some fun awards we can vote on and pass around at dinner on Day 3 some that come to mind are: Worst Shot of the weekend Most lost balls Overall MVP and now i'm stuck hoping the GolfSpy community to chip in here!

Nateyeight Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 You have to pick a par 3 and play closest to the pin Also select a par 5, and have the longest drive on that hole wins. hookem9312 1 Quote Driver: G425 Max 10.5* 5 Wood: G425 Max 7 Wood: G425 Max Hybrid: TS2 23* Irons: 6 to GW, T300 Wedges: Vokey SM8 50F, 54S, 58K Putter: 1998 Tei3 Newport Long Neck Ball: Yellow Titleist VG3 Bag: Nike Air Hybrid Golf Bag I Love the Art of Putting!

Stuka44 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Go on a trip to NY.. (Dollar/Junk Fees). This is an infraction, if committed that guys gives the other 3 guys in his foursome one dollar. Walk to the wrong cart, go in a bunker(stay in a bunker), hit the cart path (dollar for each bounce max 5$), go in water hazard, If your ball comes to rest on the cart path(you get 5 dollars from other 3), birdie you're paid 2 dollars by other 3, eagle you're paid 5 dollars by other 3. Just and idea. Make sure you bring 50 or 100 singles. Its actually pretty fun passing dollars back and forth, as the round progresses.

hookem9312 Posted August 24, 2020 Author Share Posted August 24, 2020 Love all these ideas. Definitely will have ongoing games and side bets throughout the round (closest to the hole, 5 bucks if you get up and down from that, etc.) Quote What's in the bag: TS3 Driver 9.5*, Mitsubishi C6 Blue 50 Stiff, Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound BLACKOUT SIM MAX Rocket 3 Wood 14*, Oban Devotion 7 Stiff, Superstroke Cross Comfort Black/Blue Mavrik 5 Wood, Oban Devotion 7 Stiff, Superstroke Cross Comfort Black/Blue U510 2 Iron 18*, Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black 80 HY Stiff, Golf Pride Tour Velvet 2020 Model TS200 4-6 iron, KBS Tour V (Vee) stiff, Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound 2020 Model TS100 Plus 7-GW(48*), KBS Tour V (Vee) stiff, Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound MD5 Jaws Platinum Chrome Wedges 54*, 58*, True Temper Tour Issue 115 Steel, Golf Pride CP2 Pro PXG Closer Putter Link to comment
elvis14 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 One game that we always like to play with mixed handicaps is a 2 man game called "Hi Lo". You play your own ball and use your regular score. For each hole your carts best/lo score is compared to the other cart and your teams worst/hi score is compared. So on each hole you can earn 0, 1 or 2 points. Cart with most points win, tie breakers are point on hardest hole (then 2nd, 3rd, etc).

CarlH Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 One of my favorite side games is "Insta-cash" The premise is that whoever is closest to the pin on a par 3 (on the green, of course) becomes the player. If he makes par, everyone pays him a dollar on the spot. If he makes birdie, every one pays him $2 immediately. If he 3 putts, he pays everyone $3 on the spot. Of course, anytime we had to play, we'd generally wad the dollar(s) up and throw them at the winner.

drharps Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 A couple games we have played. Wolf is a fun game (you can look it up). My buddies and I tend to drink a fair bit on the course and do "every 2 beers you drink, you get a stroke knocked off". You can modify that however - you get a mulligan, etc. There are challenge holes - like closest to the pin or longest drive - and the winner gets to negate another's shot. For instance, if my buddy gets closest to the pin and on the next hole I drill a drive, he can say, "negate" making me rehit. If I hit it in the fairway (or make it on the green, make the putt, whatever) he adds a stroke. If I miss-hit, I simply play that shot. There is best save out of a bunker, plus every time someone goes bunker to bunker (or in the same bunker) they owe a round at the end. Quote Link to comment
