The Format
Since this is not a Golf Tournament, this is the format for the “Hot Shot Golf Challenge”.
You need to decide which one of the 3 Rounds you would like to play in. You will be competing against golfers in all 3 Rounds, not just the round you will be playing in. You need to purchase a ticket for that round and then register the golfer for that round. This is required due to insurance requirements, and each ticket is customized for each golfer. After registering the golfer, you will receive an email with the Event Rules and an “Event Ticket Receipt”. You will need to bring a copy of the “Event Ticket Receipt” along with a form of ID when you check-in. At that time you will receive your Event Ticket.
It will be a shotgun start with 12 – 15 golfers per hole. Each golfer will get 1 shot at the challenge presented at that hole. After everyone has taken their shot, the group of 12 – 15 golfers will proceed to the next challenge until they have completed all 7 challenges.
