HANDICAPS: 417GC uses the USGA GHIN Handicap Index in all of our competitions. The Handicap Committee reserves the right to issue and adjust a Club Index to any member or guest at any time. New members and guests without a GHIN index will play to a zero handicap in their first tournament. Be advised it only takes 3 rounds of golf to establish your GHIN Handicap Index. New members and guests with a GHIN Index will be assigned a Club Index equal to half their handicap for their first 3 tournaments. 

 

GENERAL INFO:

  • WE WILL MEET AT THE PRACTICE GREEN. When you get to the course, check to confirm your tee time and tee box. Last-minute roster additions may push a player from one tee box to another.

  • If not on the tee box by your tee time, you will receive a 2-stroke penalty. After five minutes, you will be DQ'd and will not receive a refund for green fees, cart, prize pool, or skins. No exceptions.

  • DO NOT PICK UP ANY "ORPHANED" BALLS during your round. If is not your ball, leave it lie where it is.

  • Let's aim for a four-hour round. Keeping up with the group in front of you is the number one rule.


 

SCORING INFO:

  • In order to increase speed of play, QUADRUPLE BOGEY IS THE MAXIMUM SCORE ON ANY HOLE.

  • Before teeing off, assign ONE PERSON in your group to keep the paper score card.

  • If your group's scores aren't posted in a timely manner, the entire group will be DQ'd.

  • All four players' scores must be on one paper scorecard. Last names only, please. No circles or dots or games. Write clearly.

  • Please total the front nine, back nine, and overall on the paper card.

  • When the round is complete, check the paper card to make sure it matches your score. ALL PLAYERS IN THE GROUP MUST SIGN THE SCORE CARD OR BE DQ'D. Take a photo of the paper card and email it to admin@417gc.org. Make sure the card is right-side up, not upside down or sideways. 

  • DO NOT POST YOUR TOURNAMENT SCORES TO GHIN. THE CLUB WILL POST THE SCORES FOR YOU. YOU ARE ONLY TO POST YOUR NON-TOURNAMENT ROUNDS.
