Points are awarded as follows:  2008 tournaments give 10 points to the winners, 8 points for 2nd place, 6 points for 3rd place, etc.  2007 tournaments give 35% of the 2008 tournament point totals and 2006 tournaments give 20% of the 2008 point totals. 

Bonus points added for career Hole-in-Ones and Double Eagles.  CM Points awarded for recent course maintenance work and/or material donations.  One point is added for previously won FarmGolf Majors.  Finally, each FarmGolfer is given a FGS Factor ranging from 0.90 to 1.30, based upon current overall golfing skill as determined by the Deputy Commissioner. 

All points from the past three (3) years of golfing are totaled, then multiplied by the FGS Factor to determine the final overall ranking.
