About this tournament
3 rounds of play
This is a fun and casual event at the end of the season to play around and see how messed up things can get. It also always seems to rain!
Unlike other events calling themselves triple threats and are just teams of 3 players, this is the true nature of it. We will determine which individual player has all the skills to be considered a true triple threat on the course by throwing backhand, forehand, and offhand rounds.
The play will consist of 2 rounds:
- 1st round is like two rounds at the same time. One "round" must be backhand shots only, and the other forehand. Then continued with that method until holing out. (all upshots must be FH on the FH line, only shots w/in 10m for the FH line can be backhand)
- 2nd round is offhand (lefty for right handed players, righty for left handed players) for all shots, including putting.
There will be 3 divisions. All payouts will be in cash to the top 25% or top 4 (which ever is less) in their respective divisions. Note that 10% of the entries will be removed from the payout purse to cover event expenses.
No added cash. No player packs.
Optional $5 Ace Pool and $5 50/50.
Free merch CTPs for each division and a longest putt for everyone.
Pre-Registration is encouraged so we have an idea of turn-out.
Cashless is OK, just note in the comments your Name, Division, and PDGA# if you have it to link on DGS.
