4-DAY EVENT ITINERARY
Day 1: Team Draw
The experience starts out with the high energy team draw. Each Fox will randomly draw his or her Mouse and they will form the team that competes over the 54 holes.
Day 2: Best Ball
Both Fox and Mouse tee off on each hole. Teams choose one of the two drives and then both players hit successive shots, each time choosing the better result to play for the next shot until the ball is holed. 20% of the team’s combined handicap is used to determine team handicap strokes received (fractions rounded). Each player’s drive must be used at least three times on each nine holes.
Day 3: Scramble
Fox and Mouse each play their own ball. 90% of each player’s handicap is used to determine handicap strokes he will receive (all fractions rounded). The team takes the better net score on each hole for the team’s score on that hole. Each player’s net score must be used at least six times.
Day 4: Alternate Shot
Both Fox and Mouse tee off on each hole. Teams choose one of the two drives and then players alternate shots until the ball is holed. 50% of the team’s combined handicap is used to determine team handicap strokes received (fractions rounded). Each player’s drive must be used at least three times on each nine holes.
