THE

MATCH PLAY

SEASON.

What Is Match Play?

Match play is a head to head format where points are won ONLY by winning individual holes. Strokes are not counted towards a teams overall score. If your team scores a 5 on a hole, and your opponents score a 4 on that hole, they are awarded 1 point because you suck and should quit golf. Unlike a skins game, there are no carry overs in match play.

In a typical 9-hole match play game the best score a team could win with would be 5 & 4. Meaning that the winning team has accrued 5 points, but there is only 4 holes left to play, so their opponents can no longer win.

TEAMS

SEASON  FOUR

JENNY & JAME

What do you get when you combine a realtor and a landscape magnate? Easily the loudest team in QBSAGLT history. Not just in volume but also in wardrobe.

GOLDZ & JP

This team is all you need to create a great time or a perfect floor. Are they great golfers? Not really. Are they unreal dudes? Debatable. But can they tile and epoxy their way right into your heart? Also not looking great to be honest.

BRAN & SHORT GAME

These team could be trouble. A redneck and a renaissance man. Baseball, dirt bikes, skateboards, and now golf? Hard to argue with the athletic prowess of these two top notch lads nerds.

BRYNNY & FOOCH

One is a past champion, one is the winner of the illustrious Stuart P Larsen award. I’m not sure there’s two more different guys in the whole league but two champs forward, two champs back, it’s opposites attract.

JOHNNY LD & LEVS

Hard to believe there will be a team having more fun than these two! If John can design it Levs can build it and if their houses match the level of their golf game? Then I would not care to live in them.

BLOOMER & WILLY

I imagine the greatest drywall deal in all the land may be brokered on the back of QBSAGLT rounds this season. That is if they’re not too busy dragging their opponents down to their level! Ha! but seriously if these two get hot they’ll. be a major problem.

STUEY & SCHELS

Long drive? Possibly. Ball bounced off the road and into a window of the crown mansion? Also possibly. One rarely misses, one rarely shows up, but when the two of them are both in attendance watch out. Especially if you live on a golf course.

TIMBO & COMMISH

Peak nerdery right here. Need clarification on a rule? We probably don’t know the answer. Need a drive shanked off of a maintenance shed? We’ve got you covered. Silky approach shots? Not our thing. Good times? High chance.

FORMATS

Wing & String

Teams are able to supplement their shitty play with 3 wings (throws) and 3 string length (provided) improvements. These wings and strings do NOT count as a stroke towards your score and when used strategically, can make even the worst round, slightly less bad.

DISCLAIMER: Shortgame played college ball, get him as a partner. He one time threw a golf ball over a mountain.

Cards

In this format each team pulls a card out of a silky smooth velure pouch held by their paired team. The cards are a crapshoot, green cards are a reward, red cards are a punishment. Each provided pouch has an equal number of green and read cards so draw wisely.

DISCLAIMER: Cards are only drawn on ODD numbered holes; 1, 3, 5, 7, 9.

Portugese Caddy

Who couldn’t use a little help now and then? In this format each team gets 3 kicks to improve their lie. These kicks do NOT count as strokes towards your scorecard. Use them at the right time and a par can become a birdie pretty quick.

DISCLAIMER: I take no ownership of the potential racial implications of this format name.

Triple Threat

Three formats rolled into one. It’s pretty simple, holes 1-3 are played as a scramble, holes 4-6 are played as foursomes aka alternate shot, holes 7-9 are played as a shamble aka teams drive, pick their best drive, then play their own ball into the hole from there. Low score is recorded.

DISCLAIMER: Get yourself a partner who doesn’t suck at golf.
