Nassau

One of the most common Variations Of s.aich play is me Nassau,

Thar is when piayers or teams (or both) play three sepa- rate matches in the same round. One match covers the front nine, one match covers the back nine and the final match covers the entire 18 holes.

So, for instance, if Player A is one hole up after the 9th, he wins the first bet and continues to lead by one hole in the match for the entire 18. which continues on the back nine. A fresh back-nine match begins on the 10th hole.

Wf vou really want fo get

complicated, vou ger into presses, 2 term often heard around clubhouses after the morning draw. This is where you need an experienced “gamer” taking charge of the scorecard because it can get pretwy messy on that small picce of cardboard,

Anytime a player or team presses, it means a new match starts on the hole they issue the press and continues thraugh te the 18th hole, or until the match is out of reach.

(The order for wolf’ rights should be pre-determined and the rotation simply continues).

Ifvoa're playing for golf tees, you simply make cach point worth a.designated amount of tees and ai the end of the round, the difference is paid out.
