Hello!
Thank you for signing up for the 2025 Mulligan’s Madness – A Calvert Road Ice Bowl. We have already raised more than $1200 for the College Park Community Food Bank!
SPONSORS:
Huge shout out to Mark “Sharky” Sherwood for kicking in a bunch of CTP discs. Every division will have at least one CTP. Some holes will have multiple CTPs for different divisions so please pay attention to the CTP markers that you move.
WEATHER:
We will have cool weather but it looks like there will be no liquid coming out of the sky. That said, Calvert Road is SUPER MUDDY right now due to today’s rain and the melting snow. Please plan accordingly and PLEASE BE CAREFUL.
SCHEDULE:
SATURDAY 2/1:
8:00-9:30am: Check-In at the shelter across from Hole 10.
945am: There will be A BRIEF player's meeting.
10am-10:15am: Tee Time following a 2 minute warning.
GROUPS:
Groups have been set and are available for viewing at
https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/87563
Please double check this page in the morning as there could be some changes.
SCORING:
ALL players (or their caddies) are required to keep score. This is a helpful page:
https://www.pdga.com/news/how-score-2024-player-td-guidance
Most will embrace the changes and use their phones as the PDGA app is awesome and very useful for more than just keeping score. Those who are stuck in the past and insist on writing down their scores will be provided with a stone tablet and a chisel so that they can record scores.
OK, not really. I will have paper scorecards for those who need them.
LIVE SCORING:
We will be using live scoring. You can access the PDGA Live App or website: pdga.com/score
The code is mulligan
If you need a primer on how PDGA Live Scoring works, please see the information at this link:
PDGA Digital Scorecard
MULLIGANS:
Mulligans are an extra shot that you can take at any time – Drive, Upshot or Putt. Players will have a maximum of 5 Mulligans that they can use during the round. Multiple Mulligans may be used on one hole but only one Mulligan may be played per lie.
The process for using one of your Mulligans is as follows:
DRIVING: If you wish to use a Mulligan following a drive, you must wait until the entire card has thrown their initial tee shots. When all four players have teed off, a Mulligan must be declared BEFORE THE GROUP LEAVES THE TEEING AREA. In other words, you cannot walk down the fairway and see that you don’t like your drive and then walk all of the way back to the Tee to use a Mulligan. Also, while I know that you might have just thrown your favorite driver 300’ away, you are NOT allowed to walk down the fairway beyond 50’ to retrieve your driver.
UPSHOTS AND PUTTING: If you wish to use a Mulligan in the fairway or on the green, you must call it out BEFORE THE NEXT PLAYER THROWS THEIR NEXT SHOT (Be kind to each other!). If you use a Mulligan on the fairway or on the green, you throw your next shot right away rather than waiting for other players who are closer to throw their shots. Like the drives, retrieving your disc to throw another shot should be kept to a minimum and within a reasonable amount of time.
YOU CAN ONLY USE ONE MULLIGAN PER LIE. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU CANNOT THROW THREE TIMES FROM THE SAME LIE.
IF YOU USE A MULLIGAN, YOUR FIRST SHOT IS CONSIDERED ABANDONED. YOU DO NOT GET TO CHOOSE FROM THE BEST OF THE TWO SHOTS. YOUR MULLIGAN SHOT IS YOUR LIVE DISC.

PRE-ORDERED FUNDRAISER DISCS
First, thank you all for ordering discs through DGS. Your discs will be available to be picked up after you check in.
It is entirely possible that we have forgotten something. If we didn't cover something that you are needing to know – and especially if you think others should know it - please do not hesitate to contact me by replying to this email or picking up the phone and giving Sam a call at 971-645-6371. Or text... because that is easier. If anything comes up that bears repeating, I will mention these items at the Player’s Meeting.
This email has also been posted here: Mulligan's Madness - A Calvert Road Ice Bowl for public questions and comments.
Thanks and see you tomorrow!
-Sam
