Format: Team scramble. Foursomes all players drive from the Blue tees (6564 yards, Par 72) best ball is selected for 2nd shot. Each player hits a ball from that spot. Continue this all the way to the green and until the ball is holed. If only three players in a foursome then rotate through all three players to hit the next #4 shot, not just the best player. No mulligans. The worst score on any hole is a bogey. So bogey is your friend. Gentlemen age 70 can use the Gold Tees (5543 yards, Par 72). Women can play from their Red tees (5167 yards). Play toward a four-hour round as a goal. Prize: A Traveling Trophy based on the lowest average of all service branch foursomes scores wins. Again low average wins, of all foursomes.
