You have to be lucky and good to win a golf game of Rabbit, particularly down the stretch.
Rabbit
(Also known as [alternateNames])
HOW TO PLAY
The first player to win a hole outright takes possession of the Rabbit. Once the Rabbit is in the possession of a player, the next time another player wins a hole outright, the Rabbit is set free (nobody possesses the Rabbit) until the next hole that is one outright by a player. Generally an amount is bet for the front and back nine holes. In the event the Rabbit is not in the possession of a player at the end of a side, the pot is rolled over to the winner of the other side.
VARIATIONS & PRESSES
The most common variation of Rabbit is to eliminate the step where the Rabbit is set free. This reduces the likelihood that the Rabbit is not in the possession of a player at the end of a side. Additionally, some players will determine the pot size based on how many times the Rabbit changes possessions.
