Hi All,
I have been searching for some new and FUN POD's to fill up September. I have found a couple that sound like they will fit the bill. This coming Wednesday we will be playing "Bingo Bango Bongo". Here's the scoop:
Bingo Bango Bongo rewards players for three things on each hole: being the first player in the group to get onto the green; being closest to the hole once all group members are on the green; and being the first player in the cup.
The first player in a group to get her ball on the green gets a point (bingo).
The player in the group whose ball is closest to the pin once all balls are on the green gets a point (bango).
The player in the group who is first to hole out gets a point (bongo).
Show points as DOTS in the score box of the player earning the point(s). Add up the points and player’s score at the end of the game. Calculate NET score and subtract BBB points. Low scores will win.
Bingo Bango Bongo gives weaker players a chance to earn points because what matters is being first at something. Because this factor (and because the first person putting will be the one farthest from the hole), strict etiquette must be enforced. The player who is away always plays first.
There will be written instructions for you all at the desk Wednesday. Hope you enjoy it!
When I first read the Bingo Bango Bongo description and rules, I was a little skeptical but it turned out to be fun! It seemed like a crazy idea but, like a lot of the POD's, it made me look at my game a little differently and, hopefully, makes me a better golfer. When will the results be out! You're killin' me! :) You know that many of us check this website constantly to see who won the POD's, don't you? :) Mona//
