PIN-GOLF CHALLENGE:
2-man teams chosen by players, Thursday (AFTER THE STERN TOUR) 12 Noonish-6pm, Birch Room (capacity: 32 players, 16 teams, 2 divisions)
(You may enter the Pin-Golf Challenge as many times as you like, but you need to have a DIFFERENT PARTNER with every entry!) {ex: Rick Swanson & Zach Sharpe I Rick Swanson & John Kosmal I Rick Swanson & Josh Sharpe}

Players will complete 1 round of 18 Pin-Holes during Qualifying. Each Pin-Hole will consist of a pinball machine with a target score. The number of balls it takes for each team to reach that target score will represent the number of Pin-Strokes earned for that hole. Players will alternate “shots” (balls) throughout the entire round. (Just as you would do in a real golf scramble)  ONCE YOU GET TO 7 STROKES, YOUR HOLE IS OVER AND YOUR MAX SCORE FOR A HOLE WILL BE 7.

For example, the target score of say... the Addams Family may be set at 50 million points. A team will continue playing the game, alternating balls played, until they reach 50 million points. If needed, the team will need to start an additional game if the previous game ends with a score of under 50 million points. In this case any additional game scores will be added to the score accumulated from a/all previous game(s). A maximum of 7 Pin-Strokes per Pin-Hole will be put in place to keep the tournament running along at a proper pace. Should any teams be tied for First or Second place in either division, there will be a 1 hole sudden death playoff until the tie is broken. The tie-breaker hole will be determined by the tournament director.

PENALTY STROKES!!!: Never before seen in Pin-Golf anywhere! PinBrawl proudly presents.....THE PENALTY STROKE!!! If at any time you end a game short of the target (PAR) score and have to re-start the game, at that point you will be PENALIZED 1 STROKE!

18th Hole in one CHALLENGE!!!: the 18th hole will offer a skill shot at the start of the game. Teams pick one player to start the game and if the first shot is successfully made, you get credited with a HOLE-IN-1! If the shot is unsuccessful, then play continues as normal.

FAQ:
1) Can the other player of the 2-man team make recommendations during play?
YES! In fact, we encourage it! Consider Him your personal Pin-Caddie, giving you reads on what the dmd is telling you to do or instructing you personally

2) Does A. Each team take turns every other ball playing the "hole", then the opposing team play? Or B. One person from each team, then the other? (based on the penalty stroke, I'm guessing A). Actually, if I think about it, I'm guessing if you get 18 games, then we just rotate around the room, then add up the scores?
There is only 1 team at a time playing a pin(hole). You and your teammate alternate shots until you reach the par score or you reach maximum balls *8*(strokes)

3) How are multi-balls (or locked balls) handled? Does it count against your strokes (I wouldn't think so)?
No. You keep playing until you drain YOUR ball.

4) Is it ok to bring printed rule sheets with us?
YES! Ever see caddies with their books reading yardage and green slopes? You are encouraged to do whatever you can to make your round of Pin-Golf as LOW-SCORING as possible.
