To enter all you have to do is guess the combined number of strokes all four golfers will take over the ten courses – (if all four were to play exactly to their handicaps it would be 2177), par for four round the ten courses is 2020
There will be no “gimmies” and play will be from back medal tees wherever possible. In the event of a tie the winner will be drawn from a bunnet in Shetland
