The Spring Classic (formerly the Spring Open) is now an Individual Stableford with a twist – a custom stableford points system.

FORMAT: 

  • Individual Stableford
  • We will be utilizing a custom stableford points system:
    • Bogeys and worse will automatically be 0 points
    • Pars will be 1 point
    • Birdies will be 3 points
    • Eagles will be 5 points
    • Albatrosses 7 points
    • Aces will be 10 points
  • This is a shootout style event where birdies and better reign supreme.
  • This is an event that is exclusive to membership of CBGC and Player’s Club Members (non-members with USGA Handicaps Associated with CBGC).
  • The maximum course handicap for this event will be 32 – any higher handicaps will be reduced to 32.

RULES:

  • All 2023 USGA Rules apply.
  • All putts for net par must be holed.  You can technically pick up after net bogey, but play through your net double bogey shot for handicap purposes as this is a postable score.
  • Ball will be played down through green.
  • Red stakes & lines indicated penalty areas.  If no markings, consider the hazard indication line to be a club length from the edge.
  • White stakes & roads indicate areas that are out of bounds.
  • Due to our bunker renovation project being midway, we will play bunkers as ground under repair w/ free relief.
  • All tree stumps and unmarked areas of ground under repair (due to tree work or damaged turf from machinery) is granted free relief.
  • All mulched areas are also granted free relief.
  • We will be adopting the USGA recommended local rule for Out of Bounds / Lost Balls.  If a ball goes out of play, you may take a 2-stroke penalty drop on the edge of the fairway equidistant to the point where the ball went out of play.  This is an alternative option to going back and replaying your shot with a penalty stroke (stroke & distance).

PAYOUT INFORMATION:

  • 30% of the field (or roughly) will be paid out in gift cards.  50% of the prize pool will go to net, 50% will go to gross.  In the event that an odd number of teams must be paid out, net will take precedent.
  • An optional skins game of $5 per golfer will also be played – this will be in the form of individual skins.  We will be utilizing our 2023 House Rules for this tournament’s skins game.

HOUSE SKINS RULES:

  • Canadian Skins – Net Skins, but the lowest gross score wins in the event of ties.  For example, if two golfers are tied with a net 3 on a hole, but Player A had a gross 3 and Player B had a gross 4.  Player A would win the skin.
  • Net birdies or better to win a skin.
  • 70% Handicap Allowance
  • Max Handicap is 32 – any higher handicaps will default to 32.

  • Chantilly Card, Pines, Heron, Collegiate, & Junior Members$65.00 for the entire registration
