Ryder cup format.. Advice

[Jonnyfresh]

Am organising a Ryder cup competition between my society members for a two day break we have planned in October.
2 teams of 8 playing four balls on day 1 and singles on day 2.
I need advise on handicaps. I understand we will play match play over the two days but should we use full handicaps, 3/4 handicaps or take from the lowest handicapper ( he playing from scratch)?
Any other tips to make the event run smoothly would be greatly appreciated.

In all four balls we play you take 3/4 of the difference of the lowest handicap in the group. Singles is full difference, although some might not agree with that.

Hello and welcome along,

I say go full h/cap difference. Whichever way you choose no doubt there will be debate and much bemoaning by the losers.
