Have 8 players playing 3 rounds together. Need a recommendation for the event besides just individual net scoring or point quota. Could be based on individual play or 2-man teams. Thanks

@DaveP043 Can give you some good advice.

Could try this:

Blind Nine
Sometimes called Blind Hole, Blind Nine is a scramble tournament in which only nine of the 18 holes count in the team's final score. The catch is that the teams don't know which nine holes count until after the round is completed. The tournament organizers usually wait until all teams have teed off before randomly selecting the nine holes whose scores will be used.

If they all got legit handicaps and you can split it relatively even, you could do a Ryder Cup style event.

Each player will play all players once in a random draw 1-6, 7-12, 13-18 on day one and two or all 3 days.
Players can play on segment against Par, if needed.
Players receive one point for a win, 1/2 point for ties, zero points for a loss.

If using two rounds on day 3, Seed top six players and they play against each other.
Points can be reset or combined for total results.
Seed 7 & 8 play against each other for a small prize also if you like.

Set an entry and payout per your desires.
I developed a spreadsheet which will calculate results years ago.
I used it for a 50 player event over a season duration, but will work for solo round calculations.

I like the idea of 2 person teams.  You can re-shuffle the teams each day.

Day 1: 2 man net best ball

Day 2: 2 man net Alternate Shot (if you want, you can modify it with each teeing off, selecting the bet drive and alternating from there. Or go with straight alternate)

Day 3: 2 man net scramble.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 52: simulator day. Played Old Head and shot an “80,” which was probably more like a 78 in a non-simulator. Then worked on irons for 15 minutes, and may have found a good feel.

      I don't know what to tell you. You can't test wedges with range balls, and you have a LOT more info to gather before you can begin to really even test anything else, either.

      Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.

      New, College Golfer Trying to Go Pro

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.
