Rules of Play

Each player receives 1 mulligan per 9 holes. Mulligans cannot be carried over to the next 9 holes. They are lost if not used. Mulligans are not eligible for CTP consideration or acepot payout.

If a player is not sure whether they have thrown OB, they can call a provisional mulligan. If the first throw is OB, the player must take their provisional mulligan. If it is not OB, they must take their first shot and retain their mulligan.

Standings Logic

Count

One of a player's highest 9 event totals. These points determine the official standings.

Out

An attended event outside the player's best 9. It remains in the record but is grayed out and excluded from the standings total.

Pre-Drop

All league points earned before lower event totals are dropped from the counting score.

Ranking Ties

Players with the same counting-points total share the same displayed rank.

Protocol // 05

Acepot Protocol

Prior Balance+Event FundingAce Payouts=Current Acepot

Each event records the amount received for the acepot. If an ace is recorded, its payout is deducted from the running balance.

Any remaining balance carries forward. Multiple aces and payouts can be recorded for an event, and the funding log preserves the full history.
