Overview
These are extra games that run alongside your main scoring. Each one adds its own tab with results, so your main leaderboard stays the same. Wolf, 6-6-6 and Bingo-Bango-Bongo are played inside each foursome. One-day handicaps give every golfer a fair handicap from their own round when nobody has an established index.
Who this is for
Organizers of leagues, member-guests, and buddy trips who want a side game. Your scorekeepers enter Wolf and Bingo-Bango-Bongo results hole by hole.

How each game works
| Game | How it's played | What you need |
|---|---|---|
| 6-6-6 Rotating Partners | Three six-hole segments. Partners rotate each segment so every golfer partners every other once. | Teams of four with per-player scoring. |
| Wolf | A rotating Wolf picks a partner each hole (2 vs 2) or goes alone for triple points (1 vs 3). | Teams of four with per-player scoring. Scorekeepers enter each hole. |
| Bingo-Bango-Bongo | Three points a hole: bingo (first on the green), bango (closest once all are on), bongo (first in). | Scorekeepers award each point by hand. |
| One-day handicap: Callaway System | Drops each golfer's worst holes to work out a handicap from their own gross round. | A full 18-hole card per golfer. |
| One-day handicap: Peoria | Uses six secret holes to work out the handicap. | A full 18-hole card. Pick the holes, or leave Peoria secret holes blank to auto-pick six evenly spread holes. |

Tips
- Add player handicaps and hole stroke indexes if you want net results. Without them, Wolf and 6-6-6 score on gross balls and the page tells you so.
- 6-6-6 and Wolf need foursomes with four players who each play their own ball. A team with fewer players shows a note instead of results.
- For Peoria, keep the secret holes secret until the round is over.
