General rules for the following competitions:

Maximum handicap is 36.

We will be invoking the maximum stroke of 10 on any hole. Pick up your ball and record a 10 with 3 putts (to stay in the Low Putt contest) if you will exceed 10 strokes.

Stableford Overall Winner

The winner will be the ParFects member with the best overall score from their top 5 Parfects Stableford Tournaments.

• All scorecards must be fully filled out and turned in after each tournament, including Course Handicap, Strokes, Putts, and Stableford scores. Don’t forget to date and sign the card—any incomplete cards won’t count.

• April and October tournaments won’t be included in the Stableford Competition.

• The winner will be announced during the Annual Holiday Gathering in December.

Putting Competition

The winner will be determined based on the best 5 out of 7 putting scores from the ParFects Tournament Days. The total number of putts for each round will be recorded. The lowest putting total for each tournament will be used to calculate the cumulative score.

Definition of a putt: Ball must be on the green. If any part of the ball is on the green, it can be counted as a putt.  A ball on the 1st cut/fringe does not count as a putt. If ball putted on green rolls off green, the next shot is not a putt.

• The following tournaments will count toward the competition:
  March, May, June, July, August, September, and November.

Tiebreaker:

• In the event of a tie, a putt-off will be held at the Annual Holiday Gathering.

  • Players will take a set number of putts (e.g., 3 or 5) on the practice putting green.

  • The player who sinks the most putts wins.

  • If the putt-off remains tied, players will continue taking additional putts until a winner is determined.
