Chapman Event at Redhawk Golf Course (9-holes, 2-person)

This is a great opportunity to invite a non-EWGA member to our organization and to play in a 9-hole, 2-person Chapman. Bring your friend, partner or spouse (yes, men can play!) to this fun event. Bring that league partner you have been playing with every week or your nephew you have been wanting to play with.

Chapmans are a lot of fun, especially when you have to decide between the ball behind the tree or the one in the sand trap!:) Come join us!

"Chapman System" is the name of a 2-person team competition format named after Dick Chapman. In the Chapman System, both players on a side tee off, then they switch balls. Player A plays Player B's drive, and vice-versa. Each player hits Player A or Player B’s second shot. They then select the best of the second shots, and from that point until the ball is holed they play only one ball in an alternate shot format. Got it?

The player whose second ball was not chosen gets to play the third shot (so teams might sometimes choose the best ball after two shots based on who will get to hit the third).

Handicap allowances for Chapman System competitions can be found in the USGA Handicap Manual, Section 9-4 (www.usga.com). Video: Watch a demonstration of Chapman System play
