Countback

If scores are tied then the person with the B.I.H (best inward half or otherwise known as the back nine) wins, if they had identical BIH's the it goes to the person who shot the lowest score on the last 6, then 3. If it is still tied, I am snookered cos its never happened at any comp I have played.

Typically, Count-Back is invoked only if there is a tie among the competitors finishing with the most points. Ties between (say) fourth and fifth place finishers remain ties and their spoils are equally divided. However, Count-Back may be used to resolve all ties if this is established by the competition officer before the event.

To perform a Count-Back, sum up the Stableford Point totals for everyone sharing the tie over the final nine (9) holes of the event. If this results in a single competitor having the largest point total, then he/she is the victor and the process stops.

If multiple competitors share the largest point figure after the initial Count-Back, then continue the Count-Back process by eliminating any competitors whose back-nine totals were less than that largest amount.

Then perform a Count-Back of the remaining competitors over the final six (6) holes played. If this fails to resolve a single victor, then repeat the process over the final three (3) holes. If still necessary, then resort to the final hole.

If an outright victor cannot be resolved after all four stages of Count-Back, the process continues as follows:

1) Best Stableford score on the single most difficult hole of the course (to make par). This will be the hole designated with a " 1 " in the line bearing the label " HCP " or " Handicap ".

2) Best Stableford score across the three (3) most difficult holes of the course.

3) Best Stableford score across the six (6) most difficult holes of the course.

4) Best Stableford score across the nine (9) most difficult holes of the course.

If there's still a tie after all eight stages of Count-Back then you'd simply arrange a fight to the death using broken golf club shafts because you're pulling my leg. Nobody has a tie after all these stages. It just doesn't happen.
