How To Play
Setup
Form 2 teams of 1 or 2 players.
For doubles, partners will be on opposite ends.
Set buckets 25 or 30 feet apart.
Gameplay
Green team tosses 2, then brown team tosses 2.
ONLY ONE TEAM SCORES AT A TIME.
Team that scores tosses first in the other direction.
THE RULE IS: you can’t step past the bucket when tossing.
Scoring
5 points for a toss in the bucket (called a “bucket”), bounce-in counts.
3 points for a “leaner”.
1 point for closest within a bottle's length of the bucket (take a bottle and measure from any point on the bucket).
Opposing bottles tossed in the bucket cancel out (see scoring examples below).
Play to 21 or over. Must win by 2 points.
Scoring Examples:
If green makes 1 in a bucket and brown makes 1 in a bucket at the same time, they cancel out, then look to see if a player has a bottle closest and within a bottle's length of the bucket to score 1 point.
Green makes 2 in a bucket and brown makes 2 in a bucket; they cancel out = no score.
Green makes 1 in a bucket and brown makes 2 in a bucket; they cancel out = 5 points for brown.
A team has 1 in a bucket AND also the closest within a bottle's length = 6 points.
A team has both bottles closest and within a bottle's length of the bucket = 2 points.
