Skins

Skins is a timeless game where each hole is an individual competition with players competing for the lowest unique score.

Overview

Players compete on each hole for a “skin”.  Player with the lowest score wins.  If there is a tie, there is no skin awarded for that hole.

Any number of players

Played individually

Stroke play format

How to Play

  • Skins can be played by any number of players. 

  • Competitors agree in a “buy-in” and the skins pot is established. 

  • A skin is awarded if there is a low score on any of the stipulated holes. 

  • Winnings are automatically calculated and can be seen on the leaderboard as the round progresses.

Settings & Adjustments

  • Handicap allowances can be applied to even the playing field between players of different skill levels

    • Often, groups allow only a percentage of a player’s course handicap for the competition. 

    • There is also the option to use “half strokes”.  This allows players to still benefit from their course handicap but will not allow a gross score to be cut or tied by a net higher score.
