How it works

9 Point is a threesome game — every hole hands out exactly nine points across the three of you. Just enter everyone's score like any round and it sorts the points and the money hole by hole.

  • 5 – 3 – 1 by net score: low net on the hole takes 5, the middle 3, the high 1. Five plus three plus one is nine.
  • Ties share the slots: tie for low → split the 5 and 3 (four each, one for the loner). Tie for last → winner keeps 5, the other two split 3 and 1 (two each). All three level → three apiece.

The money

Pick a dollar amount per point. At settle-up each pair compares point totals and the difference pays out at that rate. Feeling it? Nudge the rate up or down on any hole — a closing hole can be worth more. It's three head-to-head ledgers in one: beat both players and you collect from both, and the books always balance to zero.

Good to know

  • Net scoring — the round's pops apply; lowest net wins the five.
  • Exactly three players — the nine-point split only works for a threesome.
  • Pairwise settlement — you're paid the sum of your point differences against each opponent.
Worked example
$1 a point

A hole finishes 5 / 3 / 1. The low player is +2 on the middle and +4 on the high — they collect $6. The middle player breaks even, and the high player pays $6. Change the rate and every difference scales with it.
