Wolf
Format: Team
No. of Players: 4
Play: Wolf is a game in which the players in a foursome establish a tee off order on the first tee and rotate that same order throughout the round. The player that tees off first is the Wolf. The players take turns playing the Wolf based on the rotation of the established tee off order.

The Wolf has the following options:
  1. Choose one of the other three players as a partner for the hole (see example), or
  2. Play the hole alone against the other three players.

Example:

The Wolf would tee off first.

The second player in the rotation tees off next.

Based on the results of the second players drive, the Wolf has the option to select the second player as a partner or pass. (Here is where the strategy begins). Once the third player hits their tee shot, the second player is no longer eligible as a partner for the Wolf. Likewise, once the fourth player hits their drive, the third player is no longer eligible as a partner for the Wolf.

Once the fourth player tees off, the Wolf must select the fourth player as a partner for the hole, or play the hole alone against the other three players.

Wolf can be played low ball or low total.

Points are earned as follows:

  • Winning team: 2 points each player
  • Wolf plays alone and wins:Wolf earns 3 points
  • Wolf plays alone and one player beats Wolf: All players earn 2 points except Wolf.
  • No Points earned for ties.

If you enjoy games that involve strategy, try Wolf, it will become one of your favorites.
