Pick 6, Use 4 Golf Pool: How It Works

Each entry picks six golfers and only the best four scores count; the two worst are thrown out. On TourneyRun it is an Office Pool with six picks and the two lowest scores dropped.

What does pick 6, use 4 mean in a golf pool?

Each entry picks six golfers and the best four scores count toward the team total. The two worst are dropped.

Can TourneyRun run a pick 6, use 4 pool?

Yes. Create an Office Pool, set the tiers so each member picks six golfers, and set the Score rule to drop the 2 lowest scores.

What happens if three of my six golfers miss the cut?

Under a penalty rule the missed cuts are usually the worst scores on the entry, so two are dropped and the third counts, penalty included. Under the default Fixed Penalty (+8), that is his first two rounds plus +16.

Are the drops decided after the cut or at the end?

On TourneyRun, at the end by default: the worst two are recalculated live as scores come in. In stroke play the commissioner can lock them after round 2 with the Round 2 drops tool.

Can two people pick the same golfer?

Yes, in an Office Pool. A golfer can appear on any number of entries. In a Snake Draft each golfer goes to one team.

How are ties broken?

Each Office Pool entry predicts the winner's score to par, from -30 to +10. Between entries on the same team score, the closer guess places higher, over or under. Entries still level share the place.

Can members enter more than once?

Up to 3 entries per member if the commissioner allows it, each with its own six picks and its own tiebreaker.
