The Tournament Chair or Pro Shop draws nine holes after the round is completed. For game score, total the scores of these nine holes and deduct half your handicap for your final score.
MATCH PLAY

One best ball and one mystery ball is scored on each hole. Each player is assigned with a mark such as a diamond, spade, club, or heart. Make up the scorecard with pops according to handicaps. After a hole is completed, proceed to the next tee box where a card will tell you which player's score must be used from the hole just played. That person's score must be used for the Mystery Hole ball and may also be used for the best ball score. Two jokers on the course are wild.
