HOW IT WORKS • Set up your game, add your group, head to the first hole • Every hole deals each golfer a challenge — some easy, some that take a real shot to pull off • Pull one off? Mark it complete and keep playing • When the round ends, your completed challenges become poker cards • The more challenges you complete, the more cards you draw • Pick a caddy — your wildcard power-up to improve your hand • Build your best five-card poker hand. Best hand wins. WHY YOUR GROUP WILL LOVE IT Caddy Poker gives every golfer something to play for on every hole — even after a blow-up hole wrecks the scorecard.
