“Low Net” refers to the scoring category where a player’s or team’s gross score (actual strokes taken) is reduced by their handicap, and the winner is the one with the lowest adjusted score.

4-Person Best Ball (Net) — Team of four. On each hole, calculate each player’s net score; the lowest net score among the four is the team score for that hole. Total the 18 hole low-net scores for the team’s round.

Also called: 1 Best Ball of 4 (Net), One Low Net of Four.

Golf Genius setup: Team Best Ball → Balls to count: 1 → Team size: 4 → Net (apply your chosen handicap allowance, e.g., 100% or club standard).

Each member of a 4-player team hits a tee shot. The team then selects the best shot, and all players hit their next shots from that spot. This process continues until the ball is holed. Only one score is recorded per hole for the team. 

Count Your Putts

 

This is our normal individual stroke play format with a catch.

The only strokes you count for your score is the amount of putts you have.

Once your ball is on the green (within the lines of the fringe) Each player counts the amount of putts even if you putt off the green.

 

There will be no handicap in this event.

Everyone is competing against each other.
