Each team member hits their next shot from the chosen spot of the prior shot. 3.This procedure is followed on every shot for the remainder of the holes, including putts. The ball should be marked on the putting green also. 4.Putts need to be made within 3 inches of the marked spot (no closer to the hole). The first ball to go in the hole is counted for the team score. 5.If the ball you choose to play is in a hazard (sand, water, etc.), the rough, or out of bounds, you cannot drop the ball outside of the hazard or rough even if relief is within one club length away. 6.Each team must use at least one of each team member’s tee shots. 7.Men tee off from the white tees and women from the red tees. 8.To speed play (all day) 2 putts allowed per green.
