How It Works

The Formats

Friday Morning

Four-Ball

Two against two. Everyone plays their own ball and the better net score on each hole is your side's score. One good ball per side, and when your partner is out, the hole is yours to save.

Four matches · Four points

Friday Afternoon

Two Best Balls

Four against four. Everyone plays their own ball and the two best net scores combine for the hole. The second ball decides most holes, so the middle of the roster earns its keep.

Two matches · Two points

Saturday

Singles

Head to head over eighteen holes, full difference in strokes. Six points are available Friday before eight singles points go live at Harrison Lake, with 7.5 required to win the Invitational.

Eight matches · Eight points

House Rules

Keep It Moving.

Pick up when your side has a score you cannot beat. Keep the group moving.

7.5 wins it. 7–7 and nobody gets to say a word for a year.
