How it works
- Rotate who is the Wolf each hole.
- The Wolf tees off first, then watches the others hit.
- After each drive, the Wolf can pick that player as a partner.
- Or go Lone Wolf (alone) for double points. Call Blind Wolf before anyone hits for triple.
- Best ball wins the hole. Losers pay winners the points.
Example
Mike goes Lone Wolf and makes birdie. Everyone else makes par.
Mike wins 2 points from each of the other 3 players.
Tips
- Pick a partner fast or you’ll be stuck with the last guy.
- Lone Wolf on a hole you love.
- Agree on multipliers before you tee off.
