2–6 playersTeamDot Games

How It Works

Two teams. 6-Point Scotch weights the two net categories at 2 points each, for 6 points per hole. Low Net, Total Net and Net Birdie are auto-calculated; KP is tapped to the winning side. There is no Putts category in 6pt.

4 Categories (6 points total)

Low Net 🏅 — 2pts to the better best-ball net. Total Net 🔢 — 2pts to the lower combined net. Birdie (Net) 🐦‍⬛ — 1pt (auto). KP (Reg) 📐 — 1pt (manually awarded).

Options & Variations

scotchVariant fixed at 6pt. Payout: $/point (betPerDot) times the net point differential, settled team-to-team. Carryover (off): turn it on and a tied category carries to the next hole, stacking on top of the 2-point weight so a Low Net streak can reach 4×, 6×, or higher.
