Predict Your Score: Before teeing off, golfers fill out a prediction form trying to guess/predict the total gross score and the total number of putts they will need to complete the round. The person in each flight guessing the closest to her actual score will win. In case of ties, the player whose putt prediction is closest to her actual score will win. (Real scores are posted).

Best Ball: The best “net score” among the foursome per hole, from each player’s strokes where they fall. Scores cards are marked with dots reflecting each player’s handicap on each hole. Team score per hole is the best ball score, winner is the team low net. (Real score of each player is posted.)
