Bingo, Bango, Bongo

Bingo Bango Bongo Junk awards points throughout the round for three different accomplishments. At the end of the round, points are totaled and the differences are paid out. Bingo Bango Bongo is a points based game that can be played by any number of players and as a side game to Wolf or a Nassau . In Bingo Bango Bongo, three types of achievements are rewarded with a point. The first player in a group to get his ball on the green gets a point (bingo). The player in the group whose ball is closest to the pin once all balls are on the green gets a point (bango). And the player in the group who is first to hole out gets a point (bongo). Add up the points at the end of the game, high points wins. Bingo Bango Bongo gives weaker players a chance to earn points because what matters is being first at something. For example, all members of the group tee off on a par‑4. The player who hit the worst drive (farthest from the hole) plays first, and so has the first shot at winning the bing...

Is a putter needed for Nasty Junk: A Serious Discussion

A point for "Nasty" Junk is earned when a player holes out from off the green for par or better.  Since the purpose of junk is to reward exceptional play, Nasty Junk, sometimes called simply a 'nasty', is a popular and preferred Junk. There has been some debate about whether a nasty can be earned when the player holes out from off the green with a putter.  Some players have argued that a nasty should only be awarded when a 'non-putter club' (NPC) is used to make the stroke.  To make this determination, we must revisit 2 of the Fundamental Rules of Junk. Our first task is to determine if the use of the putter would make the hole out so routine that it would no longer be an exceptional shot. This would not be the case as the hole could not be so close to the edge of the green to make any hole out probable, even for pros. Secondly, the Junk should not give such an incentive, on balance, that a player m...

Aloha -- Hello or Good Bye

The Aloha bet is a simple 'double-or-nothing' bet which can be placed on the tee box of the final hole of play.  Essentially, the side losing the match monetarily wages that if their side wins the final hole, the bet is squared.  If the team leading the match wins, the loses are double and net junk earned on the final hole is thereafter add or subtracted from the total. It is important to note that the Aloha must be accepted by the side leading the match.  It cannot be unilaterally imposed by the side losing the match.  The GJA discourages the use of the Aloha bet as it increases the luck factor already present in a game of golf.  In equity, the play of 17 holes should not be negated by the results of one.
