Wolf

The wolf picks a partner, or plays alone

Wolf needs four players. The wolf rotates in the order you enter them: player one on hole 1, player two on hole 2, and so on. On each hole the wolf goes alone or names one partner. The comparison is best net ball, not the total of the team.

Lone wolf

The wolf net is compared with the best net of the other three. If the wolf is better, each of the three pays the wolf double the stake. If any of the three is better, the wolf pays each of them double the stake. A tie pushes.

With a partner

The better net on the wolf team plays the better net on the other team. Each player on the losing side pays each player on the winning side the stake. A tie pushes. The settle-up at the end of the card nets those hole payments so the group writes fewer checks.

This page is the rule the calculator uses. It is not a house game and there is no rake. Wolf is not in the free preview. $7 unlocks it, along with Bingo Bango Bongo, Vegas, Stableford, presses, and the yardage card.
