The String Game
We will be playing a new game this week. You will count 2 best balls for a 4 person team.
Instead of handicaps you will each be given a length of string equal to your handicap ( e.g. 21 handicap gets 21 feet of string)
Moving the ball: Before taking a stroke, a player may move their ball to improve their lie – such as out of a bunker, from behind a tree, up against a the edge of a waste bunker, or from the point of entry with a water ball.
Cutting the string: After moving the ball, cut the length of string equivalent to the distance the ball was moved. You will not count this move as a stroke. Choose wisely, once you’re out of string, you’re on your own.
On the green: String may be used to hole out a putt. If the ball is 9 inches from the hole a player may cut off 9 inches of string and count the ball as holed out. The decision to use the string to hole out a putt must be made before the putt is attempted.
Since this is a 2 best ball game, strategize as a team for hole’s in one and birdies.
Threesome’s will use Mia, she always gets a par and gets no string.
Please bring a pair of scissors to cut your string.
