Medal Play, Nines & Quota Betting

Medal Play, Nines & Quota

Three more betting formats for your group — from classic stroke play to point-based games.

Medal Play (Stroke Play)

The simplest format: lowest total score wins. Medal play can be scored Net or Gross and wagered on Front 9, Back 9, Overall 18, or all three.

Setup

  • Select players or teams (with team balancing options)
  • Choose Net or Gross scoring
  • Set bet values for Front 9, Back 9, and/or Overall 18
  • Choose how many places are paid (1st through 5th, with automatic payout splits)

Results show each player’s score totals and finishing position, with payouts calculated based on place finishes.


Nines

Nines is a points-distribution game for exactly 3 or 4 players. On each hole, a fixed number of points are divided among the players based on their finishing order:

Position3 Players (9 pts/hole)4 Players (12 pts/hole)
1st (best score)5 points5 points
2nd3 points4 points
3rd1 point2 points
4th1 point

If players tie, points for their positions are split evenly. After 9 holes, the total points per player come to 27 (3 players) or 36 (4 players). Players above average win; players below average lose. The settlement is the difference from average multiplied by the point value you set.

Setup

Select exactly 3 or 4 players, set the dollar value per point, choose Net or Gross, and pick your holes (Front 9, Back 9, or Full 18). The Save button won’t activate until you have the correct player count.


Quota

Quota is a points-based game where each player has a personal target based on their handicap. Your quota equals 36 minus your handicap. Earn points on each hole and try to beat your quota:

ScorePoints
Double Eagle8
Eagle4
Birdie2
Par0
Bogey-1
Double Bogey or worse-3

The player who exceeds their quota by the most wins. For example, a 15-handicapper has a quota of 21. If they earn 24 points, they’re +3 over quota. Rankings are based on how far above (or below) each player’s personal quota they finish.

Setup

Select players, choose Entire Field or Teams, set Net or Gross scoring, configure bet values and places paid. The app calculates each player’s quota automatically from their handicap.
