    Hey all =)

    U might know me because of my monthly Matchplay-Trophies that will continue soon. Some days ago I played a round with a friend of mine and we came to a very funny idea. Now I wanted to see if there are people around interested in playing such a game. These are the rules:

    1. 9 holes Matchplay Practice Mode, Settings: Easy tees&pins, low winds and slow green speed (u will be happy about that in this game^^).
    2. One of you (decided by bracket, the player who is named first in the match) may choose a club that has to be played at the first hole (and only that club at the whole hole!)
    3. If u hit into rough or a bunker when driver is the choosen club.... well u can as well give the hole up, better dont play there ;)
    4. Only on the greens there is a different rule: U may use a club of your choice (no putter though!) there, but u may not change it. Little help: good choices are Driver or wedge, second one is easier to control in distance but more difficult to drop in the end
    5. From there on both players alternate in choosing clubs until the final hole of play (may as well be an extra hole) with player 1 choosing holes 1,3,5,--- and player 2 holes 2,4,6,---.
    6. No club may be choosen twice and putter is not an allowed choice.
    7. Only the following courses are used due to playability with low clubs like 3w&driver: royal st. georges, oakmont, st. andrews

    Is there anybody around who would like to participate in a matchplay fun tournament like that when the open at rsg are over? Please write sth. if u got any ideas about this or want any further information. U may also send me a message or write sth. here if u want to try it in a fun game with me ;-)

    Cheers, Hans

    Damn this is hard, u gotta get use to it, he beat me 5 up :D pfft! You might wanna play a quick practice before u try it ! but one improvment you can make hans is make it not 1 time for each club make it more or unlimited. It might take a little bit of the pressure off.

    Lol @ "never play someone at their own game" Maybe u are a little right there ;) But there is nothing on stake, its just for fun, as is the tourney. So maybe there are still some people around who would like to try this out in a practice round or even a little tournament. We will see!

    Cheers, Hans
