What is a good golf game to play if you are sponsering a hole at a golf tournament?
Billy D asked:
Our company is sponsoring a golf tournament. We are going to be sponsoring some of the holes on the tee boxs handing out prizes. We need a game that we can play for the prizes. We have one game where the players try to hit a tennis ball into a bucket and if they get it in, they get a prize, but we need some more ideas for our other holes. Please Help with some ideas that you guys have done at golf tournaments, or just ones that you have heard of.
longest drive
closest to the pin
Have competitions within the tournament on certain holes.
like
Longest Drive (on a par 4 or 5)
Closest to the pin (on a par 3)
Longest put (on any green)
just a few examples of what i’ve seen.
On a par 5 hole or long par 4 hole with straight fairway, have a longest drive (must land on the fairway) contest.
On a hole with a water hazard, play the ball that got closest to the water without getting wet.
On the shortest par 3 hole, closest to the pin.
On the largest green, the longest putt in the hole.
Let’s not forget about the all important and highly regarded closest in 2 shots. (On a par 4 or par 5.) Most alcohol consumed?
On a medium length Par 3, get someone to be on the Tee throughout and charge a sum of money per player to hit the green, if they hit the green they win a prize, that way, the cash pays for the prizes (or raises money) and people have a bit of fun.
or
Get the pro out (if you can!), and people can pay to challenge the Pro to get closer to the pin thean he/she can and if they do they win a prize
