Proposed Format Change

By proclamation of a straw poll of the members assembled near the putting green yesterday afternoon, the following modification to our weekly games of chance has been proposed to level the playing field when we end up with odd numbers.

Scenario: The Straggler
Common Aliases: Stragglepuss; The Boston Straggler; Bob Dray.
Example: A last-minute addition creates four (4) foursomes; one (1) fivesome.
Current Methodology:
- Number all cards 1-21.
- Draw player at random to complete each fivesome.
- Take 4 out of 5 net plus all 5 net on hole 9 & 18 to determine front/back/overall.
Proposed Methodology:
- The foursomes play 3 out of 4 net, plus all 4 on holes 9 & 18.
- The fivesome randomly numbers its players from 1-5.
- A player from one of the other groups picks a number from 1-5.
- The scores for the player selected are dropped from the game, creating a foursome.
- Each group tallies their cards using 3 out of 4 net plus all 4 on holes 9 & 18 to determine front/back/overall.

Barring any objections from a large cross-section of the group, I recommend that we install same beginning next weekend. Thanks.
