Royal Dornoch do a foursomes every year.
Most frustrating pointless game in golf. I detest it, find it extremely difficult to get into any sort of rhythm or stride. I can just about handle greensomes as you at least both get to drive and it feels as you play more and take part in the game.

Each club holds a knockout competition and the winners represent the club.
I think he was thinking more a knock out comp, but could do that esp as he's a member at Dornoch, i know they do a mixed but not seen a FSM on there before

You might find a few more greensomes than foursomes. Certainly in our area it's more common. Like foursomes but everyone hits tee shots so that's why I think it's more popular for opens as it's more than half a game.

we won the Kings one, i was a RU at Nairn and he won at Dornoch, so was keen to try a national.. he seems to think foursome suits the lower handicaps where the greensomes is a bit more forgiving for the Higher... thats his theory anyway. GS too much buggering around TBH, one ball quicker... or should be

The greensomes are generally won by mixed teams as the advantages on certain tees with 1 set of indexes can make a mockery of the event. We would place in the mens section but not overall.

Horses for courses I guess, as foursomes is one of my favourites being a real challenge and test of patience, forgiveness and acceptance for each individual - and where you have to consider the strengths and weaknesses of your partner when it’s your turn to play. But not everyday - and would never want to have to play it the default playing format.

Foursomes golf - the worst game ever!

My experience is that playing a lot of scratch foursomes matches in the past has made me better at coping with the bad breaks I get and mistakes I make in all other formats. And I have found that there is great satisfaction when the two of you really meld successfully in a foursomes match - more so than 4BBB. Not such a fan of foursomes in other than a match format.
