Played in a tournament with this format?

4 man teams

1-6 holes Alternate shot, Everyone hits a tee shot. if you use the A players drive he would hit the 5th stroke if needed.

7- 12 holes best ball chose one drive then everyone plays it in.

13-18 holes captains choice.

This is the first time I had ever seen this done or played in something like this.

We came in with a 73 because we were 5 over on the alternate shot, our D player was a 35 handicap. He hurt us bad in that format. If I would have known this was how the tourney was going to be run I would have found a true A player instead of me. But it was fun and for a good cause.
Habitat for Humanity. If you ever get the chance to play in one of there tourney's play in it. It was my second time and they are always well run and they give away great prizes.

played that format many times,the trick is to find the best spot for your D player to hit. Also have play in best ball where you had to use three holes scores from each player minimum. Tough to throw out a birdie or par to use the D players bogie score, hope he gets three pars and use those holes.

Tiger Woods quote

That's a funny quote tater, but just can't seem to picture that coming out of Tiger's mouth.

He said it..........I got it from a book of famous sports quotes.

    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
    • Day 31 (2 Jan 26) - Usual Friday men’s group shootout - good day of shot making  as most shots were right on line to the target point.  Putter and green reads were solid with some great par saves and a really tricky birdie.  
    • Day 13 - 2026-01-02 One hour short game work. Chipping balls to different targets, compass putting drill with 2-3% slope.
