Texas scramble handicaps

[Lord Tyrion]

I think a team of four low single figure guys won a texas scramble last year with 16 birdies, an eagle and a par (gross). Skooted the comp.

I once played in a comp where the winners had 16 birdies. All low single figure golfers, annoyingly all nice blokes as well. They won a few comps that year but that was their best effort. You can't argue with that level of golf. Can't beat your one though.

It still seems slightly perverse to me that the best players get more shots than normal but the worst players get far fewer.

Nobody gets more shots. The plus guys just have to give fewer back to the course.

most of the Texas scrambles ive played in 16 birdies might only just get you in the prizes
