The tournament will be played in the Scotch Foursome format between two-person teams. In Scotch foursomes, both players on a side tee off. Players A and B each hit a drive, the better of the two drives is selected, and then A and B play alternate shot until the ball is holed. Who hits the second shot? The player whose drive was not selected. If A’s drive is the one the team decides to use, then B plays the second stroke.
Women are encouraged to form or join teams, either as all women or co-ed, teams. Women will compete from the forward tees. In the case of a co-ed team, her partner will compete from the tee appropriate to his age.
Players are responsible for forming their own teams and submitting completed applications that include both players along with a Team Name. For players losing a partner to unexpected emergencies, or for players without a partner, the tournament committee will make every effort to help.
There will be no group photo this year, due to covid restrictions, nor a formal awards ceremony. All awards will be given out after play is concluded.
Arrangements for a Friday practice can be made with the Copley Golf Club and must be completed by 5 p.m.
Checks should be made payable to the Vermont Hickory Golf Association. To pay via PayPal send funds to: vermonthickorygolf@gmail.com
