Captains choice..

[devinh821]

So I played in a toys for tots captains choice this past Wednesday and had a blast.. Especially since half the fee went straight for the toys for tots.. But they had a sheet and each hole had a "naughty or nice".. Being if you were nice one or two would be allowed to hit from the senior tees and naughty someone or two who have to tee off from the tips. They even have gambling holes where you drew a card and whoever pulled the high card was allowed to tee off and you had to play that ball.. Also there was a short par 4 where all you could tee off with was a 7 iron. Yes my group immediately said you ever pared in with a 7 iron?? But it was just really cool way to do things to mix it up and for a great cause! Anyone else experienced a tourney like this?

Yeah...played in a lot of these "gimmick" events that have been very cool.

I played in one annually called the superintendents revenge. The course was made difficult and very risk reward.

Played in another one where you teed off with a wiffle ball, when you got to the green you had to bowl a ball into the hole(made off the green), play the whole hole with a wedge, use a football to tee off on a short par 3, etc.

One charity outing I play in every year has a large amount of prizes. On one par 3, you can put up some cash..usually everyone does $20..The girls working the tee box will write it down and roll a pair of dice. What ever the result is, you then multiply it by your cash amount that you put up. Then if you hit the green on your tee shot you win that amount worth of tickets for the prize drawings. A good way to raise extra money. If you have a hundred golfers and average $20 per, that's an easy extra $2000 for the cause.
