Good stuff Gus, we play in one where one player is much longer than the rest of us, and we actually have him go 1st, it takes all of the pressure off of him having to come through under pressure, if he does miss the fairway so bad we have to tee off, the next to tee off will hit 3 wood, and we continue to hit 3 wood until the fairway is hit, then the drivers come back out.

Now THAT is good stuff. There is more value in that than in everything that I wrote.

The other thing I thought of is you have to get a GIR. Bogey's are death in scramble. Have the first person aim at the middle of the green and once a ball is on then shoot for the flag. You don't want to rely on short game to save pars. Most amateurs are better putters than chippers so any chance you can have to putt for birdie, take it- even if it is 40 feet.

Edit: TC beat me to the other thought...

Eraser. Bring a big eraser.... (I kid- kinda.)
