Fireman's Axe - Texas Scramble Competition Rules
How to Play a Texas Scramble Game
Step 1 – Handicap Allowance – Using the information above, you can work out the handicap allowance based on the number of players in each team. You will notice the highest handicap player always has the lower percentage.
Step 2 – Tee Off – Every player in each team will tee off, there are no exceptions. Remember, not every ball will be used from the position it lands.
Step 3 – Pick The Best Drive – Team members can get together to choose the best drive and, in most cases, this will be obvious but may require a little discussion if there are two or more drives in a similar position. The team captain will have the final choice. It’s worth remembering at this point, there are various versions of Texas Scramble with additional rules. Each team member must register 4 drives to be selected.
Step 4 – All Play Second Shot – Having chosen which drive to use, every player in the team will play a second shot from this position. The ball position of any other drives on this hole is ignored and players can pick up their balls to play from the chosen driver position.
Step 5 – All Play Third Shot – The same procedure applies as above for all remaining shots, until the hole is complete. Only one golfer needs to hole out on each hole.
Step 6 – Mark Down Gross Scores – The gross score must be marked down on the scorecard for each hole. That means the total number of strokes played on the hole.
Step 7 – Total Score – At the end of the round, calculate the total score and take away your team handicap to give the total net score.
