Savage Side Bets

How to play: Call "Murph" before your shot on any hole. If you make it in 2 shots, you win. If you miss, you pay everyone.

Betting logic: Caller pays everyone if they miss, or gets paid by everyone if they make it. Risk vs reward!

Strategy tip: Best on shots you're confident about, but not too easy!

How to play: Best score on each hole wins the skin. Ties carry over to the next hole, building up the prize!

Betting logic: Winner gets paid by all other players. Multiple skins stack up when holes tie.

Strategy tip: Play solid golf - consistency wins over risky shots.

How to play: KP: On par 3 holes, whoever gets closest to the pin wins. Must be on the green! LD: On par 5 holes, the longest drive wins. Must be on the fairway (first cut!)

Betting logic: KP pays the accurate hitter, LD pays the big hitter

Strategy tip: Aim for the center of the green on KPs and swing as hard as you can on LDs.

How to play: Get a snake (3-putt) and you owe everyone money. The snake "bites" you!

Betting logic: Anyone who 3-putts pays everyone else. Encourages good putting!

Strategy tip: Lag your first putt close - avoid those costly 3-putts!

How to play: One player is the "Wolf" each hole. They choose a partner OR go "Lone Wolf" for bigger stakes!

Betting logic: Wolf + Partner vs other team, OR Lone Wolf vs everyone else (3x payout!).

Strategy tip: Choose your battles wisely - going Lone Wolf is high risk, high reward!

How to play: Track players who lose their ball out of bounds or in water, meaning they have to replace their ball.

Betting logic: Each shank increases the pot. Players who record a shank pay the bet amount. Players who don't record a shank split the pot. If everyone records a shank, the last player doesn't pay but wins the pot from others.

Strategy tip: Stay in play! Avoid those costly lost balls that add up to big penalties.

How to play: Modified version of Stableford that tracks points differential per hole. Winner gets points differential × bet amount. Same points = carryover.

Betting logic: Record winner and points differential. Winner gets: points differential × bet amount. Same points = carryover. Use typical or custom Stableford points - 0 points: (Double Bogey or worse), 1 point: 1 stroke over par (Bogey), 2 points: Par, 3 points: 1 stroke under par (Birdie), 4 points: 2 strokes under par (Eagle), 5 points: 3 strokes under par (Double Eagle or Albatross).

Strategy tip: Focus on consistent scoring and capitalize on big differentials when opponents struggle.
