Mid Summer ABCD Scramble
Sunday August 3, 2025
The Mid – Summer ABCD Scramble is open to all Poland Spring Members with active GHIN handicap.
The Mid – Summer ABCD will consist of an 18 hole four player scramble.
FORMAT: Each team member hits a tee shot on each hole. The team then collectively decides which of the four balls is in the best position to play next. After the team decides which ball is best, mark the position with a tee, each player retrieves their ball, and plays a shot from the new designated position. This procedure is repeated for each shot until a ball is holed. A player’s lie may be improved by one club length (no closer to the hole) through the green with the exception of hazards. For example, if you elect to play a ball from a sand trap, the player whose ball you have chosen to play must play the ball as it lies and then the other team members will be allowed to place the ball (no closer to the hole). Once players have reached the green, the ball may not be placed to improve a player’s lie (must be placed at spot where it lies). All putts must be holed out. No gimmies. Each member of the team must use his/her tee shot once.
TEAMS – Teams will be determined after the close of registration on Friday August 1st. Teams will be made by placing A’s from low to high, B’s from high to low, C’s from low to high and D’s from high to low. See chart below for more information.
TEE TIME – Assigned Tee Times starting at 7:00 am
PURSE – Top Gross team finishers will be awarded prize money, determined by finishing position, in the form of Pro Shop Credit. All Pro Shop Credit should be used by October 15th. .
