♠ The Schedule & Format ♠
ALL MEDAL PLAY (TOTAL SCORE) — NOT MATCH PLAY. Days 2 and 3 are decided by total strokes (net), not by winning individual holes. Day 1: Split format (Front 9 Scramble, Back 9 Alternate Shot) — 1 Point for winning holes 1–9, 1 Point for winning holes 10–18; ½ Point per nine if tied. Gross score, no handicaps.
Day 0: Sunday, March 22 (Travel)

Day 1: Monday, March 23 (Stonebridge)
Team Game — Split Format (No Pops)No handicaps; all play is gross. 1 Point for winning holes 1–9 (Scramble), 1 Point for winning holes 10–18 (Alternate Shot); ½ Point per nine if tied.
Two Man Teams = TEAMS 1 vs 2, AND Teams 3 vs 4. Shotgun start at 10:00 AM.
HOLES 1–9: SCRAMBLE
- Each player drives, hitting from the same spot through the hole.
- Write down your best score.
- Remember to change formats from the front side to the back side because we are a shotgun start starting at 10am.
HOLES 10–18: TRUE ALTERNATE SHOT
- On hole 10 choose a player to drive on 10, alternating shots all the way to 18.
- If you putt out on a hole, then the other player MUST DRIVE on the next hole.
- Remember, when getting to hole 18, and you are going to the front side to play a scramble — WRITE DOWN somewhere who putted out on 18 so you will remember who drives on 10.
- The first hole you play on alternate shot — is when you begin alternate shot format.
- Example: Your match begins on hole 17, that is where your teams begin alternate shot choosing one person to drive, ALTERNATING that ball between the two players all the way through hole 18. After finishing hole 18, make a note on who putted out. When you return to hole 10 pick up where you left off remembering who putted out on 18, the opposite team member now must drive on HOLE 10.

General Play: Preferred Lies
BUMPING IS IN EFFECT.
Players are permitted to bump the ball within one foot (12 inches) of where it originally lay, not nearer the hole, using the clubhead.
USGA Model Local Rule E-3 (Preferred Lies). The Committee may adopt other relief distances.
- ❌ You cannot improve your lie (e.g., you cannot bump the ball from the rough into the fairway).
- ❌ You cannot bump the ball if it is in a hazard or penalty area.
- Maintain the "Line of Play": You may move the ball within one foot (12 inches) of where it lay, not nearer the hole, but not in any direction that creates a clear line of sight to the hole if one didn't exist previously.
- Like-to-Like Condition (same area of the course): If the ball is in the rough, it stays in the rough. If it's behind a bush, it stays behind the bush (or at least keeps the bush between the ball and the target).
Robson Ranch OB Rule
Goal: Avoid "The Walk of Shame" and speed up play.
Penalty: 2 Strokes.
Procedure: If you hit your ball Out of Bounds, you do NOT need to return to the tee. Instead, place your ball in the fairway adjacent to where it went out of bounds.
(This simulates hitting a 3rd shot from the tee and landing it in the fairway. You are now lying 3, hitting your 4th shot).
Par 3 OB: If the hole has a drop zone, play from the drop zone. If not, re-tee.
Local Rule: The "Lost but Found" Option
To be used when a ball is lost but agreed by the group NOT to be Out of Bounds.Purpose: To speed up play when a ball is clearly in play but cannot be located (e.g., buried in deep rough or leaves).
"If a player’s ball is lost and the group agrees it is not Out of Bounds, the player may opt to treat the lost ball as an Unplayable Lie rather than taking Stroke and Distance."
- Agreement: The group must agree on the estimated vicinity where the ball was lost.
- Penalty: One (1) Stroke.
- Procedure: Drop within two club-lengths of the estimated spot (no closer to the hole).
- Result: You lie 2 (shot + penalty) and are hitting your 3rd shot.
Note: If the group believes the ball may be Out of Bounds, this rule does NOT apply. You must proceed under standard OB rules (2 stroke penalty, drop in fairway).
