The morning started off with some high winds and heavy rain right at daybreak. The course got .63inches of much needed rain. By the 9am shotgun start the course was dry enough to allow carts to drive in the fairways.

There were 13 teams that started with a yellow ball and eleven teams returned to the clubhouse with their ball. The tournament is divided into two divisions. One is a regular dogfight and the second is the Yellow Ball division. If a team loses its Yellow ball they are eliminated from this division but they are still competing in the regular dogfight. The entry fee was $30 per golfer above the cost of golf. Each captain establishes a rotation for the Yellow Ball prior to the start of the tournament. Each golfer has to play with the Yellow ball on every fourth hole. Ie (1,5,9,13,17), (2,6,10,14,18), (3,7,11,15) and (4,8,12 ,16).
