texas scramble

I am playing in my first texas scramble this saturday. Do you have any tips i should use when playing this format?

Putt very, very well and make sure you get one ball in play off the tee.

Bradley, Be very selective on your choice of drive on each hole. Sometimes a short drive from a lesser player is better to get out the way. Do not leave a weak player to "HAVE " to play the last 1 or 2 drives. I once had to take an air shot as a drive because the player was not that good so we all played 2nd shot from the tee. Dave CAC handed Geordie.

As mentioned by Dave you need to think tactically about who plays which Drive on which hole to make sure it takes the pressure off each player. Nothing worse in being left with a ridiculous 2nd shot!

Steve,

Everyone in the four-ball or two-ball team plays a shot. You then pick the best of those shots and everyone plays their second shot from that position. Repeat until the ball is in the hole. Usually you have to use a minimum number of tee shots from each player in the round
