SAMS LDS NTH Annual Golf tournament, NEW rules!
Hi all, one week to go,
BIG BIG NEWS, after much negotiation with the general competition
committee we got permission to do an experimental tweaking of the rules
for the tournament. Since it is a church tournament and we want it to
be different and give more players a better chance to succeed and have
fun, we are introducing "go for it golf" which means
NO PENALTIES!
So what that means is if your tee shot goes out of bounds, rather than
taking a penalty and refitting shot 3, you just go to the spot it went
out of bounds take a drop and hit your second shot. If you are 175 away
from the water and are trying to decide if you should lay up... Go for
it, if it goes in the water, go to yep the point it went in the water
take a drop and hit your next shot, no penalties, I have a son in law
who will save 45 strokes with this rule change, (he will still shoot a
250 but that is another story), this rule will also speed up the round.
On this course there are a lot of blind shots over and around things so
it is easy to lose your ball even if it is in play somewhere. So look
for a minute or two and take a drop at your best guess,( and not always
two feet from the hole) this should be a riot, tell your friends, and
see you Next Saturday
