3-4 players
Wolf
Rotating leader picks a partner — or goes solo
The 'wolf' rotates each hole. After watching the others tee off, the wolf picks a partner — or declares 'lone wolf' for double or triple stakes against the field.
The rules
1
The wolf
Tee order is fixed at the start. The first player off each hole is the wolf, rotating through.
2
Pick a partner
After each opponent's tee shot, the wolf can immediately pick that player as partner. If wolf passes on all, they go solo.
3
Lone wolf
Wolf can declare lone wolf before the others tee off (or after) for higher stakes — typically 2x or 3x the unit.
4
Hole payout
Best-ball low score per side. Wolf side wins/loses the unit times the multiplier.
When to play
Threes or fours. Strategic — picking the right partner matters.
