HOW TO PLAY

QUICK RULES

Every Hole is Par 3 – Every hole in Bucket Golf is a par 3, which means you have 3 shots to hit the bucket to get a par for every hole.
Stick with your Club – Each player is only allowed to use 1 club per game no switching allowed.
In the Bucket – Hitting any part of the bucket completes the hole; chipping your ball inside the bucket deducts one stroke from your score on that hole. (Hitting theflag stick and not the bucket does not count).
Hazards – If a player hits their ball into the foliage (bushes, water, plants, etc.) they must take a drop no closer to the hole from where the ball went out and a 1 stroke penalty.
