Stableford

Points per hole against par. Bad holes cost you nothing extra.

How it works

You earn points based on your net score on each hole: par is worth 2, birdie 3, bogey 1, and a blow-up is simply 0. Because a triple bogey scores the same as a double, it rewards aggressive play and keeps a bad hole from wrecking your card.

Modified Stableford sharpens the risk: −1 for a double bogey, up to 8 for an albatross, so there's a real cost to disaster and a big reward for brilliance.

FAQ

What does a pickup score?+

Zero points in the classic table — which is exactly why Stableford pairs so well with fast, casual rounds: pick up and move on.

Can eight of us play one Stableford across two groups?+

Yes. Each group's scorer enters their four, and the game aggregates across groups live.
