Rules -
The rules are basically the same as in a standard four-person scramble with one big difference — this is an individual format. This format can be played in twosomes or threesomes (never foursomes). Players are required to exchange scorecards at the beginning of the tournament and score their partner’s round. Players must turn in their signed scorecards immediately after the round.

Double Mulligan Format — Each player will be allowed to hit 2 “mulligan’s” on each hole. Players cannot use more than one mulligan on one shot (only one mulligan per shot). Mulligan’s can be used on any shot from the tee through the green, including putts. Players will choose their best shot and mark the ball within one club-length (no closer to the hole) and continue play from that point. Players may not use the club-length to extricate themselves from a hazard, bunker or the rough. Players may not use the club-length to move onto the putting surface. Players may not use the club-length on the putting surface. Players may use the club-length on any shot to get relief from a tree, divot, etc. All shots will be played as “winter rules” (lift, clean, and place). Players will be able to improve their lie on every shot. Unused mulligan’s can not be “carried over” to the next hole. The decision to use a mulligan must be made immediately at the point from which each shot was taken. There are NO “provisional” shots. The 14-club rule is in effect.

Maximum Score — The maximum score on a hole is GROSS bogey. Once a player has missed both attempts at par, they are finished with that hole and will receive a score of one-over par for that hole.

Bunkers — If a player chooses to use a mulligan in a bunker, they must place the second ball within one club-length as long as the ball stays in the bunker.

Out-of-Bounds and Lost Balls — If both balls are hit out-of-bounds or lost, then the player will be given the maximum score allowed in the format which is a bogey.

Scramble Strategies — Every player knows their own strengths and weaknesses as a golfer. Players will have plenty of opportunities to correct their mistakes but they will be faced with decisions many times during the round of when to use them. Players that hit an “acceptable” drive or on a Par 4 you may not want to use a mulligan on your drive and save them for two shots coming in.
