Las Vegas Scramble

A 4-person teams that is a variation of a regular scramble and involves the use of a 6-sided die. On each hole during the round, a roll of the die is used to determine which team member's drive(s) will be used on that hole. Before the round begins, team members randomly assign each member a number from one through four. Then the players tee off, each member of the team playing his or her drive. But here's the twist: After the drives are all played, one player from each team rolls a 6-sided die. The number that comes up determines which drive the team has to use. If the die shows "2," for example, then Player 2's drive must be used by the team — the other golfers pick up their balls, move them to the location of Player 2's ball, and all play from that spot. But, you say, teams are using a 6-sided die and there are only four golfers per times. In the event that a team rolls either a five or a six on the 6-sided die, standard rules of scramble apply: pick the one best drive and use that for the team's second stroke.

Lone Ranger

Lone Ranger is the name of a golf tournament format for four-person teams. On each hole, one member of the team is designated as the Lone Ranger and plays the hole solo. The other three team members play the hole as a scramble. Those two scores are combined to create the team score

Match Play

 Match play is a scoring system for golf in which a player, or team, earns a point for each hole in which they have bested their opponents; this is as opposed to stroke play, in which the total number of strokes is counted over one or more rounds of 18 holes.

Match Play - Chapman (NET)

Chapman System: Also called Pinehurst System, in Chapman the two golfers on a team both hit drives. Then they switch balls - A plays B's drive, B plays A's drive - for the second shots. After that, they pick the one best ball and play the alternate shot into the hole. 

Match Play - Four Ball (NET)

 Four ball is the name of a golf format in which two golfers partner one another, each golfer playing his or her own golf ball throughout, and the lower of the partners' scores counting as the team score on each hole.

Match Play - Foursome (NET)

 Foursomes: Foursomes matches pit 2-person teams against each other, with each team playing one ball, the two teammates alternating hitting the shots (so this format is often referred to as alternate shot). Example: Player A and Player B are partners. On the first hole, A tees off; B plays the second shot; A plays the third shot, and so on until the ball is holed. After both teams have completed the hole, the side with the lower total strokes wins the hole.

Match Play - Greensomes (NET)

 In this format, both golfers on a team hit drives, they select the one best drive, then play alternate shot from there.

Poker Hand - By Flight

In golf's Poker, though, you are using your golf scores to build that Poker hand. And in Poker, you are building one hand from your front nine scores, and a second hand from your back nine scores. That means any group playing Poker gets to play it twice. 3-5-5-6-4-4-5-3-4 What poker hand can you build from that? You can build a full house, fours over threes (4-4-4-3-3). Note that you also had three 5s on your front nine, but low scores are better. Also note that in Poker, you are building five-card hands, which means four holes per nine aren't going to matter for the purposes of this betting game. If your group is playing Poker as a solo game (not in combination with any other games, and not betting on the actual total scores), then you can play aggressively on every hole knowing that four holes won't matter for the game. How do hands rank in the golf version of Poker? This is the heirarchy: Five of a kind Four of a kind Full house (three of one score and two of another) Straight (scores in ascending order, e.g., 2-3-4-5-6) Three of a kind Two pair (e.g., two fours plus two fives)

This fun variation of “Plant Your Flag” is played the same way, but each player is given a numbered “tombstone,” usually a piece of paper or cardboard attached to a stick. When players reach their designated number, they write an epitaph on the tombstone before planting it. Here are a few samples, courtesy of the Broken Tee Saturday Women’s Golf Club in Colorado: “With the wind in her face and her game out of place, she died without ever recording an ace.” … “A 9 on #11 was the nail in my coffin!” … “She’s praying her putter finally works in heaven.” … “She died of thirst — lack of birdie juice.” You get the gist, pardner.
