FORMAT: In a four-person team scramble tournament, the lowest team gross score wins their division. There are 4 divisions: Men’s, Women’s, Seniors, and Mixed. All senior players must be at least 70 on Oct 26, 2024. All ties will be resolved by the Harbor Hills staff using a regression system starting with the 18th hole.

TEES: Men GREEN tees, senior men – WHITE tees, women – RED tees, and senior women – YELLOW tees.

RULES: All golf rules shall conform to USGA Rules and Regulations and the Rules and Regulations of Harbor Hills Country Club. Decisions of the Tournament Rules Committee are final.

1. A scramble means that all team members tee off on each hole, decide which tee shot they like best, and mark the spot with a tee or ball marker.
2. The other team members pick up their balls and place them within one club length (no closer to the hole) of the marked spot. Each team member hits their next shot from the chosen spot of the prior shot.
3. If the ball you choose to play is in a hazard (sand, water, etc.), rough, or out of bounds, you cannot drop the ball outside of the hazard or rough even if the relief is within one club length away.
4. This procedure is followed on every shot for the remainder of the hole, including putts. The ball should be marked on the putting green.
5. Putts need to be attempted within 3 inches of the marked spot (no closer to the hole). The first ball to go in the hole is counted for the team score. When putting, once any ball is holed out, no further strokes count. The team is cautioned not to make “tap” in putts until all team members have had the opportunity to attempt the team’s original putt.
6. Each player’s tee shot must be used at least two times during the 18-hole competition.
7. Men tee off from the GREEN tees, senior men from the WHITE tees, and women from the RED tees.
8. PAR is the maximum team score on any hole. When teams reach a score of PAR (missed Birdie putt or chip) pick up and move to the next tee.
9. Mulligans may be purchased one (1) for $5 per golfer. Each golfer is limited to purchasing 2 mulligans. Results of shots taken by using a mulligan are not eligible for any prizes.
10. Threesomes are permitted to rotate a fourth shot from each ball location. In other words, one person will be hitting twice from each position. However, the person hitting two shots cannot do so consecutively. (For example, it’s Player A’s turn to hit two shots. The other team members must play their ball in between Player A’s two shots.)

a. The rotation should be set at the beginning of the round, and remain constant throughout.

b. An example of this on a par 4 would be:
