Hassocks Pub Golf Society

Golf, allegedly.
Then the pub.

Seven Fridays a year. A field that should know better.
And a shield that lives behind the bar.

for work.

Coast to Downs, Sussex and a bit of Surrey. All within an hour of the pub, which is the only rule that's never been broken.

The practice green

Still time for one more.

One ball, one putt, no sliders. Longest run of holed putts goes on the board.

The short version

How you
win the shield.

The long version

01 / The game

Everyone's in it.

Stableford, off your society handicap. A 28 and a 7 play for the same prize, and the 28 usually wins.

02 / The score

Best three count.

Your three highest scores make your total. Have a shocker and it quietly disappears.

03 / The leveller

Handicaps move.

Over 36 points, lose two shots. Over 30, lose one. Under 30, have one back and a think.

The society

First tee
to last orders.

Run out of The Hassocks by the station. Captained by Chris Lambe, organised on Spond, and argued about at the bar.
