If a player is disqualified for not signing a card, should that also rule them out of any 'two's' prize as well? Your thoughts, or your own club rules, would be appreciated.

Yes out of prizes and comp, but still eligible for h/c reduction.

We still allow them to be part of the twos pot

2's are effectively a side bet and if they got one and it can be verified then they should be entitled to it or refunded their money regardless of their status in the main comp.

We had a discussion last week about 2s comps.
The question was if a player NRD at the 10th hole , could he just walk to the next par 3 the 17th at my club[ without playing the holes in between] and gets a 2, would he be within the rules. We were told not allowed , your thoughts .
PS sorry for the hijack .

if you enter a comp and also enter the 2's it is one in the same,you n.r or get d.q'd in effect you are out of the comp and not eligable,i played with a bloke who after having a 10 on a par 3 he declared he would be putting an N.R on his score but would carry on for the 2's,we were on the 4th hole !!!!! i told him to do one.

As presented I would suggest that this would be a gross breach of etiquette by leaving playing partners, then there's the issue of cutting in on the 17th during a completion ......etc ie all bigger issues in terms of the players conscious decisions than the original post

Don't agree. The 2s pot is normally optional and, as has been said, is a side bet unrelated to the main comp. If the 2 has been verified as a correct score, it would be completely unreasonable to refuse to pay out.

The twos comp is a seperate comp normally run by the Pro - its all down to the each club how they work it
But when you do the print off from HDID - even if you have NR'd or been DQ'd and you have a 2 your name will appear on the two's analysis.

Nonsense!!! If he'd said he wanted to continue to try make his buffer or get a cut following his NR would you still have told him to do one??!

100% agree.
2's sweeps are completely unofficial, have no bearing on handicap and do not affect the result of the overall competition and, as Liverpoolphil says elsewhere, it is not for a FC to be telling someone "to do one".

I agree. Although he declared he'd NR'ing (although if he holed out for the 10 surely the card was continuing anyway, irrespective of whether he handed it after or not?) he could still have been cut or got the buffer

Separate, same as Nearest Pin. Both independent of the main comp and scoring just as many have said a side bet/wager/pot whatever you want to call it and has no bearing on the main comp.
Would he be told to 'Do 1' if a player scored a 2 then a few holes later had to leave the course through injury. It is solely the performance on the selected hole for the day not the round.

Well since a two can come from anywhere at most clubs he'd be bloody stupid, but as long as he continued with the group then can't see why he shouldn't be considered for it. But then the rules behind the 2's can be what ever the club decide. Personally anyone who completes the stipulated round and is able to verify the 2, regardless of their status in the main comp, should be eligible to the 2's pot if they have entered.

In my opinion the twos is separate from the overall medal and should be unaffected by NR. The players round is not over after a blobbed hole, just ineligible for the medal prizes.

I always play to the end and i am against NR , having said that i did this year but that was the 1st time in about 10 years , was 10 over on the 15th and the ball just roll in the rough on the left and we could not find it so i NR rather then delay any more and had no chance of getting in the buffer , still tried for a 2 on 16 and 18 , I think if you NR that should be it but its a comp run by the club pro and if you paid your money and the rule is even if you NR you can still claim a 2 so i go along with that

so the guy could just carry his bag for the other holes and only play the par 3's,how would that affect my game if he was just having a few practice shots getting ready for the ones that counted,would you like tp play with someone who was not bothered for 12 holes.

Again its his round and his choice - its not up to you to decide what he does with his scorecard.
it wouldnt bother me one single bit as long as he was polite and displayed etiquette
