The Handicap Committee reserves the right to issue and adjust a Club Index to any member or guest at any time. New members and guests without a GHIN index will play to a zero handicap in their first tournament. Be advised it only takes 3 rounds of golf to establish your GHIN Handicap Index. New members and guests with a GHIN Index will be assigned a Club Index equal to half their handicap for their first 3 tournaments.    GENERAL INFO: WE WILL MEET AT THE PRACTICE GREEN. When you get to the course, check to confirm your tee time and tee box. Last-minute roster additions may push a player from one tee box to another. If not on the tee box by your tee time, you will receive a 2-stroke penalty. After five minutes, you will be DQ'd and will not receive a refund for green fees, cart, prize pool, or skins. No exceptions. DO NOT PICK UP ANY "ORPHANED" BALLS during your round. If is not your ball, leave it lie where it is. Let's aim for a four-hour round. Keeping up with the group in front of you is the number one rule. SCORING INFO: In order to increase speed of play, QUADRUPLE BOGEY IS THE MAXIMUM SCORE ON ANY HOLE. Before teeing off, assign ONE PERSON in your group to keep the paper score card. If your group's scores aren't posted in a timely manner, the entire group will be DQ'd. All four players' scores must be on one paper scorecard. Last names only, please. No circles or dots or games. Write clearly. Please total the front nine, back nine, and overall on the paper card. When the round is complete, check the paper card to make sure it matches your score. ALL PLAYERS IN THE GROUP MUST SIGN THE SCORE CARD OR BE DQ'D. Take a photo of the paper card and email it to admin@417gc.org. Make sure the card is right-side up, not upside down or sideways.  DO NOT POST YOUR TOURNAMENT SCORES TO GHIN. THE CLUB WILL POST THE SCORES FOR YOU. YOU ARE ONLY TO POST YOUR NON-TOURNAMENT ROUNDS.   TIE BREAKER:  Ties will be broken by carding of the round in accordance with our Club Policies: Last 9, 6, 3, 1, then last to first
