6’s (Sixes) Coming Soon

6’s is a rotating-partner golf format where players switch partners every six holes. Each six-hole segment becomes its own mini-team competition, making the game exciting, fair, and highly engaging.

What is 6’s?

In 6’s, players rotate partners to ensure everyone teams up with each other once during the 18 holes. Each six-hole block is scored as a team event (best ball or another agreed scoring style). Points or strokes from each segment are recorded separately, and the player with the highest total points or lowest total strokes after all three rounds wins.
