format
18 holes Stroke Play by Shotgun start!!
While this event is considered a "Regular Race Event", that does not limit the field. Anyone can enter. However, Tour Membership will be given priority up to 2 weeks prior to the event.
Individual strokeplay, flighted competition played by USGA rules. Players are flighted based on USGA HCP Index.
Winners in the Champ/Albatross/Eagle/Birdie/Par flights are determined by GROSS score. Overall Low Net for the event from the field will be recognoized if they win outright and are not a flight winner.
WEATHER POLICY:
If inclement weather should pop up, every effort will be made by the tournament committee to get in the full number of prescribed holes. If play is delayed, all players should remain on property at the host facility and await official announcements from the tournament committee. Completion of 9 holes will be considered an official tournament round. We do play in non-optimal weather conditions but put player safety first...rain and wind is playable...lightening strikes within 10 miles, hail, and puddling water on greens would be deemed unsafe or unfair, for which we would suspend or cancel the event if the prescribed minimum nuimber of holes can not be completed.
