Also called No Alibis, Mulligans, Play It Again Sam, Replay, Wipeout, Criers and Whiners (Mulligan Challenge)
Your handicap becomes a supply of mulligans to spend anywhere in the round.
Convert each player's course handicap into do-overs, typically three-quarters or two-thirds of it (a 15 gets 10-11 mulligans). Play gross score, replaying any shot you like: drives, approaches, putts. The first tee shot cannot be replayed and no shot can be replayed twice. Lowest total wins.
Gross 18-hole score with mulligans used; no further handicap adjustment. Prize or pot to the low total.
Every golfer's fantasy: the bad shot never happened.
