Fayla

The Nearest Guess

Before the first shot, everybody predicts their own final score. Sealed until the card is totted up.

How to run it

One sealed guess, about yourself.

The rule

  1. Before teeing off, everybody writes down the score they think they will actually finish on.
  2. Seal it and play the round.
  3. Closest to your own guess, over or under, takes it. The best golfer in the group has no advantage at all.

Worth knowing

What you need

Nothing here has to be bought.

Before the day

Take the predictions on the first tee, before anybody has hit a shot that could change their mind.

If it goes badly

Reads out every guess before the actual scores, in the manner of an after-dinner speaker.
