PCMGA 4-Man Scramble

Howie Tiger

The PebbleCreek Men’s Golf Association (PCMGA) conducted its final major tournament for the 2024 season. The format for this three-day event was a 4-man scramble where the members chose their own teammates. There was a 3-drive minimum for each player. The tourney was held on Dec. 5, 7, and 12. This is a very popular PCMGA event as sign-ups were completed in just hours.

The field consisted of 63 teams that were separated into six flights. One flight played from the blue tees. Five flights played from the white tees. The Blue Tee flight and White Tee flights 1 and 2 played the Eagle’s Nest//West//East rotation. White Tee flights 3, 4, and 5 played the East//Eagle’s Nest//West rotation.

After play on the final day, players gathered in the Tuscany Falls ballroom for lunch, beer, and soda. PC Golf Professional Kyle Metzler announced the winners.

In each flight, prizes were awarded for two gross scores and two net scores (three for Blue flight).
