Golf Games: Low Putts

This is one my buddies and I have often played. It’s particularly good for groups of mixed skill levels.

All you do in the game is keep track of the number of putts for each player. At the end of the round, the player with the fewest number of putting strokes wins the bet.

You could also do this as a “Nassau.” That is, one bet for fewest putts on the front; another for fewest on the back; and a third for fewest overall.

It’s a good game for mixed skill groups because putting tends to be the great equalizer. A short hitter, or poor irons player often can putt as well as the best ball striker in the group.
