Our annual golf trip is coming and this past year a lot of the guys got the golfing bug, as a result our handicaps dropped and it has caused some changes in our "golfing talent". We always have a big 4 man scramble that's a big highlight of the trip. I'm having trouble creating the teams and thought it would be interesting to get a non-bias opinion. So have at it (if you want), golfers and their handicaps. How would you make 3 fair teams. Thanks in advance

Id say count everyone off in threes in the order you have but this could lead to unfair teams depending on the strenghts off each play.

Shades 9323 had the teams I would have come up with. We do something similar and divide them like this.

A B C
F E D
G H I
L K J

You just make a snake with the ranking and then each column is a team.

If you were to have 24 people you can do the same thing, just use 6 columns. Not a perfect system, but works out pretty well.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

If you all play at the same club, let the pro make the teams,or the pro at the club you play on your "retreat". Or, put balls in the hat,and draw blind.Everybody`s got a fair chance to be the "team".

    • Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine. 
    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
