WHAT IS IT
Bucket Golf is an outdoor hybrid of golf and yard games created to bring people together. Instead of aiming for a hole in the ground, players aim to land a wiffle-style ball into a bucket using a wedge golf club.
THE SCHEDULE
FRIDAY: 11AM – 6PM
Free Play – anyone with a RiverFest Pass can play the course
SATURDAY: 11AM – 7PM
Tournament & Recreational Rounds – pre-purchase your tee time online or purchase on-site
SUNDAY: 11AM – 6PM
Tournament & Recreational Rounds – pre-purchase your tee time online or purchase on-site
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.
