A Shamble golf format typically has 2 to 4 players per team, with four-player teams being the most common choice for tournaments and group games. Each golfer hits a tee shot, and the team selects the best drive. From that location, every player plays their own ball for the rest of the hole. Unlike a traditional scramble, players do not continue playing from the same ball. The final score may be based on the best individual score, combined scores, or another format agreed upon before the round. Because it combines teamwork with individual play, a Shamble works well for golfers with different skill levels. Before starting, teams should confirm the number of players and scoring rules.
