Rules for Scramble
|
Best ball doesn’t mean choosing the best ball from the group rather it means to choose the best score from the group.
|
In Scramble, you will play a tee drive to the hole, the best will be selected and now all players will play shot from that location of the best shot.
|
Best Ball rules allow every player to play the complete hole from beginning to end.
|
Scramble rules & patterns are distinct to the best ball. In the scramble, you cannot play your golf round the whole time.
|
Best ball formats will have both gross and net scores however it is hard to find if a handicap is accurate, so that’s the reason sometimes net scores are not part of the event.
|
Scramble format use gross scores as net.
|
The lowest score is counted at the end of the hole.
|
This process will repeat subsequently until the ball enters the hole.
|
If everyone in the group makes 5 & you make 4 your score will be considered.
|
Usually, the scramble format requires two drives from each links man
The concept behind is that if you don’t play some different drives from others, then one golfer could command the entire match
|
If you take 5 physical shots for the hole your score for the hole will be 5.
|
You can also add variations to the scramble by adding any new rule to make it more interesting, such that each golfer must contribute at least 4 drives to an overall score, this will challenge players to show off their strengths by applying different gaming tactics, this fascinates everyone.
