1st Annual 2-Man Jack-et Tournament
Countdown to Tee Off!
The Details
The 1st Annual 2-Man Jack-et will be played at Tanglewood Park's Reynolds Course on August 29, 2010. Consistently ranked in the top 75 public courses by Golf Digest, this Robert Trent designed par 72 course requires accuracy and shot-shaping to ably navigate its 6537 yards. Obviously, these are two skills that none of the Nine Unknown possess.
The tournament will be played using the Captain's Choice format. Each two man team must putt everything - no gimmies - and scoring will be capped at Double Par on each hole. Players are allowed to move their ball one club length in the fairway, but must "play it as it lies" in the rough. If both teammates hit tee shots out-of-bounds they will hit from the fairway where the best tee shot entered the woods. From here they will be hitting their fourth shot.

The Prize
Both members of the winning team will be bestowed one of the illustrious Orange Jackets. These jackets, soon to be more famous than Augusta’s Green Jacket, belong to the winning team until the next year’s 2-Man Jack-et Tournament. Possessors of the Orange Jackets are required to wear them whenever four or more members of the Nine Unknown are together.
