HANDICAPPING - THE
RULES
1. All SMERGS who
win on a 9 hole event lose a shot;
2. Any SMERG who
wins overall an 18 hole event loses 2 shots. Winner front 9 and back 9
loses one shot;
3. If you don't turn
up for six weeks you lose ONE shot regardless whether you
missed a 9 hole / 18 hole or a Tour, (once you lose the shot the counter goes
back to zero.) WEEKS is the key word here NOT events!! Otherwise this penalises SMERGS who go on holidays over Xmas New Year as there are lots of games in very
few weeks.
4. If you are a long
term absentee then you get pegged to a SMERG that does turn up.
5. The balls – on a
normal Sunday winner takes all and on Tournament days the tournament director
decides the prizes for his tournament…
6. No other rules
apply as the tradition continues...
