2021 GASPAR INVITATIONAL SCHEDULE

Gaspar Golf is committed to developing a local amateur golf tour that is played on the area's better golf courses.  In 2021 we will cap our events at 72 players, which would put one group on every hole in a shotgun start.  Some of our events are truly Invitationals, and are limited to a smaller number of players.  Lake Jovita's 2 courses host our 2 day Team Event for Gaspar members only.

Join our great group now to be a part of Gaspar Golf!  See below for how our games work each month.  Members qualify for the Points Game after they receive their Points Quota after 2 Invitationals, and also play in the Skins Game.  Guests play in the Skins Game and Closest to the Pins contest.

2021 Money Totals through February

Marketing & Prizes - $707
Gaspar Cup - $575 (2 events + 2 months Challenges)
Sink the Putt - $364

The Games

Members - $20 per event
Guests - $10 per event

POINTS GAME
Reserved for members only.  After 2 of our events, you'll receive your first Points Quota, and you'll then  play in the Points Game (there are some exceptions to this, like if it's a person new to golf just learning the game).  New players must play 2 Gaspar Invitationals to establish their own Points Quota.  The ONLY exception to this is if you have played in 1 Gaspar Invitational, and have played 2+ recent rounds with one or more of our members, and we have a basis to assign a realistic Points Quota.  This would allow you to play in the Points Game in your second Gaspar Invitational.

CLOSEST TO THE PINS
Members and guests play.  We have a Closest to the Pin contest on all par 3 holes on a course.  This is usually on 4 holes, but can be less or more depending on the course.  New players participate in the Closest to the Pins contest in their very first Gaspar Invitational.

SKINS GAME
Members and guests play.  We have 2 Flights for our Skins Game, with an A Flight and a B Flight, with separate pots for both.  The pot in each Flight is split up evenly based on the number of Skins won.  It takes a birdie or better to win a Skin.  However, the winning score must not have any ties.  For example, 3 players birdie hole #1, a par 4.  No one wins a Skin because there are ties for the best score.  On hole #2, a par 5, there are 2 players with birdie, and 1 player with an eagle.  Because there is only one player with the best score on the hole, that player with the eagle wins a Skin.  This could also happen on a difficult par 3 or par 4, although rare.  Just remember, any ties for best score on a hole means no Skin is awarded.

SINK THE PUTT CONTEST
Reserved for members only.  This is our only optional game, and can only be entered by an active Gaspar Golf member with an Official Quota.  The cost is $1 in cash at the time of the contest, and only one player can win the pot.  We will set up a difficult putt on the practice green, and each player who entered the contest will get ONE putt only.  No practice putts allowed.  If any one member who entered the Sink the Putt contest makes the putt, he or she wins the entire pot.  If two or more players sink the putt, we will have a putt-off, and all players who sank the putt will get 2 putts to make the putt again.  If no one makes a putt during the putt-off, the pot rolls over.  If 2 or more players make the putt in the putt-off, the pot will also roll over.  The Sink the Putt pot rolls over to the next month when no one wins.
