Drive, Chip and Putt Event
Exciting New Event!
On Saturday April 17th, 2021, The Oaks Course will be hosting the first annual Drive, Chip, and Putt event to benefit The Horace J. Johnson, Jr. Beyond the Bar Scholarship Foundation. This event will be open to any age, and more importantly, will benefit a fantastic cause. We encourage everyone to register and to participate.
Like the Drive, Chip, and Putt that is televised from Augusta National, the scoring will be the same, but this is open to all ages. The details of the scoring will be as follows.
DRIVE-
- The fairway will be 40 yards wide and to count the drive, the ball must be in the fairway
- Each participant will hit 3 drives
- Take the longest drive that is inbounds and the player with the longest drive will win that discipline
- The winner will receive 10 pts, second 9 pts, third 8 pts, fourth 7 pts, fifth 6 pts, sixth + 3 pts.
- If none of the drives are in bounds then the player will receive no pts.
CHIP-
- Each participant will hit 3 chips from a distance of 10-15 yards
- Each shot will be measured from the center of the hole and the 3 distances will be added together
- The participant that has the shortest total distance to the hole will win this discipline
- The total point scale will be the same as with the drive
PUTT-
- Each participant will hit 1 putt from 6’, 1 putt from 15’, and 1 putt from 30’
- Each shot will be measured from the center of the hole and the 3 distances will be added together
- The participant that has the shortest total distance to the hole will win this discipline
- The total point scale will be the same as with the drive
All of the points that have been earned from each discipline will be added together to determine the overall winner as well as how each person placed. If driving is not a strong point of your game, you can still win if you can putt and chip. Do not let a weakness in your game hold you back from competing. There are a lot of ways to earn total points as well as the possibility of winning one of the disciplines. Remember that this is for a great cause and will be a ton of fun.
