THE FORMAT: TWO-MAN SHAMBLE
Both partners tee off. The team selects the best drive. Both players place their ball within one club-length of the selected drive (no closer to the hole and staying in the same condition—e.g., rough remains rough). From that point, each partner plays their own ball until it is holed out.
Gross and Net Division
A minimum of 20% of the field will finish in the money.
One Best Ball Net: The lower of the two partners' net scores is the team score for the hole.
9:00 am Shotgun Start
DIVISIONS: GROSS & NET
Gross Division: Straight-up scoring with no handicap strokes applied. This division is for teams seeking to prove they are the best "pure" sticks on the Tour.
Net Division: Scoring based on the 70% adjusted Playing Handicaps.
Note: Teams are eligible to win in only one division (typically the higher-value prize).
HANDICAP & ELIGIBILITY
Each player will receive 70% of their Course Handicap.
The "Rule of 10": A team’s handicap differential is capped at 10 strokes. If Partner A is a 5.0 and Partner B is a 17 hdcp, Partner B will be adjusted to a 15 (5 + 10) before the 70% reduction is applied.
Verification Policy: Players must have a verified GHIN. If a handicap cannot be verified, the Two-Man Tour Player’s Council will assign a handicap based on available data and peer review.
Open Competition for all golfers who have not competed on a professional tour in the last 24 months.
Tournament Tees:
Men’s Tee: Green
Seniors (60+): White
Ladies: Gold
