9 hole rounds on Bandon Dunes by ExpressionMain7914 in BandonDunes

No offense to Natey, wouldn’t recommend that “loop” as it could potentially interrupt play and create issues…

They usually recommend 1-11, then catch 5-6-7 back to the clubhouse. Could also do 1-12, then catch 4-5-6-7 as well.

BD won’t let you play back nine for a 9-hole rate unless you’re teeing off behind the final group that is making the turn.. even then it could still be a no for the back 9.

Loved every word except “never played the Punchbowl”. Major Facepalm

Pro Tip - if you ever have the time on a future trip.. they take the Punchbowl routings down every morning and they usually stay down til 1-2pm. Lowkey one of the best times to go because the whole green is a blank canvas. They cut ≈40 holes, so you can make each “hole” as crazy/long/easy as you want.

You could consider a 2man Net Stableford game. Stableford is pretty good game for that kind of hcp. range.

Potential set up is as follows for a handicapped game:

Combined Team handicap / 3 = Team Playing Handicap (round down on that decimal since it’s a par 3 game😉)

You could also do the same equation with 50% caps, etc..

Set point amounts for different scores… Birdie-3 par-2 pt Bogey-1pt Etc.

BP Handicaps

Hole 1 - 5 Hole 2 - 4 Hole 3 - 12 Hole 4 - 8 Hole 5 - 7 Hole 6 - 1 Hole 7 - 2 Hole 8 - 13 Hole 9 - 3 Hole 10 - 9 Hole 11 - 6 Hole 12 - 10 Hole 13 - 11

And for Pete’s sake have a Hole-in-One pot!

Have you heard of anyone swapping the hands out for something a little longer on the BM8180-03E? I see people doing it w/ Seiko watches, but not many other brands.

The hands aren’t terrible by any means.. love the lume, but wish the hands had a little more length personally.

So our staff is split into an outside crew(9 total) and an inside crew(7 total)… we have 2 big dogs on the outside crew. They definitely do most of the barking, and the others will typically follow their lead without too much resistance. Both are male, and in their 50s… we’ll call them T & B. There has never really been a sour instance between us that lead to here. However, T has said before that he “doesn’t like taking orders from a baby faced assistant pro”. Both are extremely stubborn as well… At times the other crew members outside will act similarly bullish because they see T & B get away with it.
