Friendly wagers to make with your buddies while playing Golden Tee

Following are some ideas for games you can play to always make every shot interesting!
First of all, there are specific accomplishments that you can designate money-worthy and pick a dollar value to apply to each:
– Closest to the pin (all holes, green in regulation only, or just par 3s)
– Longest drive, or drive that ends up closest to the pin
– Hole-in-ones
– Double eagles
– Great shot points
– All hole-outs outside a set distance
Secondly, you can play for like $1 per stroke, with or without handicap applied (you can apply a max also, so things don’t get out of hand).
Another game some guys play is the “full meal deal”:
Pay the winner $1 per stroke of his victory
GSP are worth $1 per 5000
Closest to the hole on par 3s and #18 are worth $1
Another game is 1-1-3:
$1 per stroke up the ladder (pay everyone per stroke that finishes above you). Max $5 on strokes as we don’t care to get rich off friends.
$1 GSP’s.
$3 Hole-n-One and Double Eagles.
Here are the rules to the “Bomb Game”, which, as you can see, may need to be adjusted according to your skill level:
1. Eagle Bombs – If any player is playing eagle golf after 3 or more holes – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game. This may only be collected on once per game. (Exception: -8 thru 4 or -10 thru 5 does not count on Glacier…you must be -6 thru 3 or -12 thru 6 on this course…only exception would be -9 thru 4 or -11 thru 5)
2. Any Par 4 Ace – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game.
3. Any -30 or better – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game.
4. Back-to-back hole-outs (both must be 80 yards or more) – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game.
5. Two players hole-out the same hole – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game. If only two players each player buys 1.
6. Speed Limit Bombs – Two players combined score is -55 or better. – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game. If only two players each player buys 1.
7. 75K Bombs – Any player obtains 75,000 GSP’s in a round – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game.
8. 9K Bombs – Any player obtains 9,000 GTP’s in a round – All other players share the cost of bombs for as many players as there are in the game.
9. Sign Bombs – Any player who hits a yardage sign should buy bombs for all the players in the group. (This one is very optional and must be agreed upon before the game starts.)
10. School Bombs – Any player who loses by 10 or more strokes in a given game should buy bombs for all players that scored 10 or better than the individual. (This one is also optional.)
With 4 players, teams are also a lot of fun! You can pay out low ball, low total, and least putts per team, per hole, for all kinds of action.
You can even integrate poker into Golden Tee:
1 card for any GSP (except DE putt points), par 3 KP (must make the putt or the card carries to the next par 3), eagle.
3 cards for any HIO or DE (if you miss Bayou 8 when it’s there you deserve to be behind by 3 cards).
You can also throw in losing a random card for water and bogey/worse.
Another game is the water cup. If you hit a ball in the water, you put a buck in the cup. The next person to get GSPs gets what is in the cup. If the cup is empty and you get GSps, better luck next time. You must end on GSPs. No splitting the pot at the end. Someone has to take it clean and clear. Money in the cup carries over to the next round.
Two final ideas are bogey bucks (you get a bogey, you pay everyone else a buck), and long putt bucks (you make a putt over 65 feet, everyone pays you a buck).
So pick out what works best for your group and skill levels, and bring the fun to a whole new level!

Another sort of Friendly that turns unfriendly as the bombs….beers…and shots of rumpie start rolling…
Skins on a Chalkboard now since ITS took them off 😉
$1 Skin if you get skunked(no skins) the Loser pays double so on holes there is only $36 at risk
$1 light ups
$5 Hole in One
$10 Double Eagle
I have seen this gamer grow to $20 Skins before there was a loser it was not me but 2 out of the 4 split the Skins…Try it!!!!
5-5-5
$5 for the game
$5 for the most GSP
$5 for every HIO and DE
In naples we play 3 beer nasua, bogeys double bogeys and triple are very costly shot’s
I was in Naples with my girlfriend a couple of weeks ago. I tried a couple of places to play, but all the machines either had crappy trackballs or were stuck in a corner. Then, went up at Jack’s Bait shack off of Tamiami. That was the coolest place since they had 2 for 1 beers and the owner was really cool too.
We usually just play $5 for the game, $1 for Closest to the pin and $1 for Long Drives if we all agree that we’re trying to rip it and not just place a drive.
By the way, kick ass site!!! I’m glad to know that I’m not the only addict out there!!
in the bomb game, the old duffer eagle(well not that old, 22 years old) would never in a jillion years even come close to -6 after 3, -30 or 2 players of -55, or 75K GSP`s or 9K GTP`s and me getting par 4 ace or holing out 2 straight holes is shit i have done only once or twice in my mother friggin life.
and if i would play the eagle bomb game on glacier i would count -8`s after 4 and -10`s after 5 because i think being -9 after 4 would just be impossible.
You suck eagle
How about stuff like “barkies” and “sandies” and “arnies” and “fishies” like on the real course? If you hit a tree and make par, it`s a barkie. If you find sand and make par, it`s a sandy. If you make par without being on the fairway or GIR it`s an arnie(which is named after arnold palmer) and it`s a fishie if you find water and make par. might want to change those bets from par to birdie because it`s golden tee and anyone can just hit a tree or find sand or water and still make par.
7-7-7
$7 for every hole in one
$7 for every double eagle
$7 for winning
You can also do CTTP on par 3`s and drivable par 4`s and long drives on hole #1 and any other long and straight hole without shortcuts.
And me and my buddies sometims just play like, “if you win you get $x from everyone else”.
