Saturday Modified 666 Countdown.
Method of Play.
Each player plays off their GA handicap using a stableford scoring format.
All players play their own tee shot.
Select the result of the best tee shot, as you would in an Ambrose.
From the selected ball, every player plays their own ball within 1 club length of that position, or, if the chosen ball is on the green, 10 cm of the chosen ball.
Players then continue to play with their own ball until they complete the hole.
Each player must use at least two of their tee shots over the course of the round.
Scoring.
Holes 1-6
The best individual stableford score is the team score. Record each players score on the card under the initials of the player. Put the team score in the Marker result column (+/0/-). See example below.
Holes 7-12
The aggregate of the best two stableford scores is the team score. Record the scores on the card under the initials of each player. Put the team score in the Marker result column (+/0/-).
Holes 13-18
The aggregate of the best three scores is the team score. Record the scores on the card under the initials of each player. Put the team score in the Marker result column (+/0/-).
Results.
The team with the highest aggregate is the winner.
Teams of three.
Apply the same rules but a separate three-person result will be determined.
Groups of two.
Play as an individual stableford.

score incorrect on 18
Thanks Pete, went past the number of fingers on one hand! All fixed.
For the 666 example: hole 18 is using 4 scores =7 (shouldn’t it be =6 using the 3 best scores)?????
Yep 6 it is! Just checking that peeps were reading the article.LOL.
Ignore my comment below – already under control. It will be a fun day.
This is a fun competition having played in a charity event a few years ago. If my understanding is correct, the score shown on the example on the 18th should be “6” (the best 3 scores, and not 7 as shown.
There was no separate 3 person result
Have another look Brad. A late inclusion on the result page. I believe your team was successful. However you didn’t beat anybody as their was only one 3 person team. Each of you were awarded a ball for your great team score with only three players. Well played.
