Skins is a game format in golf where each hole is assigned a predetermined value known as a 'Skin.' The player with the lowest score on a hole claims the Skin and its corresponding value. In the event of a tie, the Skin carries over to the next hole, accumulating in value.
Skins are a fun way to add extra excitement to a round with friends. You can win the game even when having a bad day; you just need to win the right holes. The objective is to accumulate the most Skins by the end of the round to secure the overall victory.
In a variation of Skins, the game can be played without any carryover. In this scenario, the player with the highest number of won holes at the end of the round wins the game.
