Gof Tournament Format question.

you play 9 holes with a partner. You each hit a drive and pick the best one. then you both hit that shot and pick the best one etc etc.

Isn't that BEST BALL? WHat's the difference?

So if it's two players you play aginst another pair in a foursome right?

better ball is 2 people in a team, playing their own shots from wherever they are and its the lowest score from the two.

People confuse Best Ball and Scramble a lot for some reason. But as fitz said (and some others):

Best Ball (Four Ball): Each player plays their own ball and they take the lowest score of the hole.

Scramble: Each player hits a drive and each player will play from the best shot until the ball is holed. This is like getting a mulligan on every shot.

Alternate Shot (Fousomes): The golfers on the same team take alternate shots throughout the match, with the same ball.

You would only be playing against another team of two if this were a match play event. More than likely its just a nine hole scramble with two man teams as in you will be playing everyone else in your flite.

I don't understand how you log the score on a scramble then? If each player hits from the same spot until holed, everyone gets the same score?

theres no individual score you put down the team score since you get 2 chances at each shot

So on a tournament that is 9 Hole 2 Person Scramble it probably is 4 people in a group right (2 person teams).

Yes, you would still do your foursomes, but there would only be two on a team..
