Keepers Pinehurst Glenmorangie 2021
Our next full field event is the Keepers Pinehurst Glenmorangie 2021 to be played on the North Course on Sunday August 15th with scheduled tee times between 10:05 am and 12:15 pm.
This is a “Pinehurst Scotch” format that blends Scramble and Alternate Shot elements into an entertaining Two-Man Team Kompetition. You must choose your partner for this kompetition so mend some fences and find a friend to play with before you sign up.
All players are playing from the Gold Tees (there is no Green Tee Option for this event). There is a team handicap calculated with the USGA Formula for these type of events and it is based on each partners 80% course handicap on the North Gold Tees. Team Handicap will be the sum of 60% of the lower handicap partner’s handicap and 40% of the higher handicap partner’s handicap.
Once you finish your round turn in your scorecard to the desk in the golf shop.
The rules are quite simple:
A. Both golfers on the team hit drives.
B. They walk forward to their balls, but then switch balls for the second shot. Partner A hits Partner B’s ball, Partner B hits Partner A’s ball.
C. After the second shot they compare the results and select the ball to play on, picking up the other.
D. The person whose shot is chosen steps aside for the third stroke and they play alternate shot until the ball is holed.
E. Strokes on each hole are applied based on the team handicap to get a Net Score.
That is the Keepers Pinehurst Glenmorangie-hit drives, switch balls for the second shot, pick up the worst ball, and play alternate shot into the hole. This should play rapidly if you limit consultation on the alternate shots to two sentences (which is more than adequate for players of Keepers ability).
What is kool about this alternate shot version is that to win you have to play the Par 3’s well, getting two balls on the green to give your team more opportunities for net birdies or better. The 5 Pars on the other hand are high pressure seeing that they are shot holes where a net par probably loses a shot to the field.
