How it works
- 1Set a playing order. The Wolf rotates each hole and tees off first.
- 2After each other player's drive, the Wolf can claim them as partner — but must decide before the next one hits.
- 3Or go Lone Wolf, one against three, for double points.
- 4Better ball of each side wins the hole and its points.
Good to know
On the last two holes, the player who's last in points is usually the Wolf.
