10 real golf games with proper rules — not simplified versions or approximations. The real thing.
Mix and match any combination. Enter scores once, every game updates automatically.
Each hole is worth a "skin." The low score on a hole wins it outright. If there's a tie, the skin carries over to the next hole, building a jackpot. A clean win on a carried hole can be worth multiple skins.
On par-3 holes, the player whose tee shot lands closest to the pin — and who goes on to make par or better — wins a Greenie. A side game that rewards accuracy off the tee.
Three separate bets in one: the front 9, the back 9, and the overall 18. Each is scored as a match play competition. One of the most popular golf game formats in the world.
Two teams of two. Each player plays their own ball, and the best (lowest) score on each hole counts for the team. Teams compete hole by hole in match play format.
Players rotate as the "Wolf" each hole. After watching each player tee off, the Wolf chooses a partner — or goes it alone as a "Lone Wolf." Points are won or lost based on whether the Wolf's side has the best ball on the hole.
A match play format where either side can "hammer" the other at any point, doubling the current stake. The opposing side must accept or concede. Adds significant pressure and strategy to every hole.
Two-man teams combine their scores into a two-digit number (lower score first). The difference between teams determines the payout. Includes the birdie flip — a birdie lets you flip the opponent's scores to their disadvantage — and an eagle doubles the entire hole's value.
A rotating format where the scoring method changes every 6 holes — keeping every part of the round interesting. In BetCaddie, COD is always played as Best Ball, with teams rotating across the three 6-hole segments.
Similar to Las Vegas but with rotating partners each hole and escalating point values as the round progresses. The shifting alliances and growing stakes make every hole matter — especially on the back nine.
Each hole is worth 9 points, distributed 5-3-1 based on finish order. First place earns 5, second earns 3, third earns 1. A great equalizer for 3-player groups — everyone always earns something.
BetCaddie tracks every format simultaneously. Enter scores once and every game updates automatically.
Skins and Greenies pair naturally with any of the group games — Nassau, Best Ball, Las Vegas, or COD. They add individual incentives on top of team competition. For 3-player groups, Wolf and 5-3-1 are the standout formats.
At the end of the round, BetCaddie combines all active games and shows the minimum number of transactions to settle everything. No mental math required.
