Golf Dots Game
Make your next round of golf more fun for the whole group! The game of Dots rewards players with points for great plays. Track the points and achievements easily with the Dots game pieces.
The golf game Dots also goes by the names Trash, Junk, and Garbage. Some people draw their dots on the scorecard or track points in an app. Savage Golf Dots is a convenient, tactile way of tracking those points and makes a great gift for the golfer in your life.
Instructions
Dots points are awarded for these achievements:
Greenies, or hitting a green-in-regulation, can be a game to itself when no players go on an adventure in a round:
On a par-3 hole, you earn a greenie by hitting the green in one stroke.
On a par-4 hole, by hitting the green in two or fewer strokes.
On a par-5 hole, by hitting the green in three or fewer strokes.
If two or more players hit a Greenie on the same hole the point goes to the player closest to the hole.
If the player goes over par while putting they lose the point.
Pinnies are won when a player sinks a long putt — measured in flag lengths. The longer the sunk putt, the more points.
Sandies, Woodies, Splashies, and Scruffies all score the same. A player wins the points if they come back to par or better after their adventure.
A hole-in-one is always worth four points.

1 point for a green-in-regulation

To keep it really interesting agree that each point is worth a quarter, or more if you dare!
