Hello

I have a complicated game we play in our golf league. I've done my best to try to give an example. In short, it rewards birdies and par if you are the only person to get it amongst a group. Each person puts in $20 a piece to create a pot. A "Rabbit" is getting the lone par in a hole; A "Squirrel" is getting the lone birdie or lower (eagle/double eagle) in a golf hole. I don't know if its possible, but is there a way to calculate who won a rabbit and squirrel every six holes, then tabulate payment of those rabbit and squirrel (possible two per six holes). If all six are not accumulated, then the leftover money is in skins.

To win a rabbit or squirrel, one has to have it in hand at the end. So in the example, I would get a rabbit in hole one, but if someone gets a rabbit in any subsequent hole following (up to Hole 6, Hole 12, or Hole 18) then the rabbit goes "back' for availability. I hope the spreadsheet and example helps. Please reach out if questions. In short, I want a program to calculate the yellow, adding the names itself somehow.

The yellow if formulas can be created. the green I can input myself as the amount of money may vary.

Here is the raw data

Here is the spreadsheet I loaded the numbers manually that I am hoping formulas could be created. I'll put it in xlbb. This would be putting the names of players getting money. Any money not won with rabbit or squirrel is pushed to skins (lowest lone score on hole regardless if it's a par or birdie/eagle/double eagle). I added this text. On my example, there might be a lot of people with skins so not enough space or rows . Maybe if responding the skins rabbit and squirrel could be done columnar. In mine I shoved everything in one column if that makes sense.

Here is an explanation of how I manually calculated each hole. There are three sections Holes 1-6, 7-12, and 13-18. So each section gets one rabbit one squirrel up for grabs.

Rabbit: Lowest score on a hole if that score is a PAR
Squirrel: Lowest score on a hole if that score is birdie (1 stroke below Par) or eagle (2 strokes below Par)
Hole 1Bobby Daye gets rabbit and squirrel
Hole 2Bobby Daye loses the rabbit and Squirrel as Brister and Brown birdied hole (tie). So rabbit and squirrel back to square one
Hole 3Harold Davis gets rabbit and squirrel
Hole 4Harold Davis loses rabbit and squirel as Anthony Bolder birdied hole. Rabbit and squirrel back to square one
Hole 5No one wins. Rabbit and Squirrel out there for the taking still as its back to square one
Hole 6Sean Allen gets rabbit and squirrel. Only bridie of group. Since this is the last hole of the section, he WINS rabbit and squirrel
Hole 7No single person wins this hole outright. Lots of pars
Hole 8No single person wins this hole outright. Lots of pars
Hole 9No single person wins this hole outright. Lots of pars
Hole 10Brandon Bowers gets a rabbit and squirrel.
Hole 11Brandon Bowers loses the rabbit and squirrel. Reggie Collins only birdie so rabbit and squirrel back to square one
Hole 12Three people bridied hole so push. Therefore no one wins rabbit and squirrel this section.
Hole 13Three people bridied hole so push. Therefore no one wins rabbit and squirrel this hole.
Hole 14Toni Davis got a hole in one so gets Rabbit and squirrel in hand
Hole 15Toni Davis loses Rabbit and squirrel. Bobby Daye gets sole rabbit and squirrel. Back to square one
Hole 16Harold Fields had the lone par. So he gets a rabbit only. Squirrel still at square one
Hole 17Lots of pars. Inhcluding Harold who parred so he keeps the rabbit from hole 16
Hole 18Lots of pars. Inhcluding Harold who parred so he keeps the rabbit from hole 16. So in this section he wins a rabbit only.

Here I think is a better format where I placed the table I want at the bottom laid out in three sections horizonatlly

I posted yesterday a game I needed help calculating winnings but to keep it simple, I'll just as the following. I attached sample scores. A Rabbit is getting a PAR. A squirrel is getting a birdie. However, how can I adjust the formulas so that if someone doesn't par a hole, but the lowest score is a bogey so I can label that "BOGEY" again if bogey is the lowest score for the hole and for an eagle, maybe call that "EAGLE". I would ope a double bogey (two strokes above par) isn't the lowest score but I guess while I'm at it, maybe include that in the formula. I'm fine with the multiple rabbit and squirrel showing as I can visually see those.

For cell c8, if the score was a "2" how can I label that "EAGLE" and for cell F5 if the score was say a "5" assuming other scores stay the same how can I label that "BOGEY" . The formula I used in B17 and copied is =IF(B5>B$3,"",IF(B5=B$3,"Rabbit",IF(B5<B$3,"Squirrel")))

Also any idea how I can put a conditional formatting to identify the lowest number? So if a rabbit and squirrel are in the same column, pick squirrel. I put in green the people who would "win" the hole.

To make it even simpler, I created numbers to correspond to the "Rabbit" Squirrel, Eagle, etc. I want to know how do I only 'show' the lowest numeric number yet it cannot be a duplicate. So if a column has three 4's and five 5's and two 3's, then everything pushes and none of the cells will be highlighted. At this point, I want 'only the number' to show up if its unique and the lowest mathematically.
