What is your Scramble Play strategy?

Got a scramble coming up and looking for some tips.

Thanks for the invite.

Most consistent go first?

Let you A player decide what he wants to do. Some will wants to go first and get it out the way. Others will want to see what the team does then decide.

Some tournaments will make you hit in order of player A-D.

I like to let myself and some of the weaker players play first from the tee/fairway. If we get one in play, it allows the better player to take a more aggressive approach. If we don't get one in play, then the better player can take the safe approach.

On the green, let the one best player read it and point out your aiming spot... then let your best speed guy hit the first one and try to give the best player as many looks at it as possible.

Just have fun. Don’t take it serious.

It’s all about making putts. Normally will always have one in play unless nobody can break 100 on their own.

We already have 4 terrible putters... we dont need a fifth.

Sounding like overall best player finishes up each hole.

Appreciate the incite fellas.

What's the strategy here when playing in a scramble?

Cheat?

Seriously, I've never played in a scramble where cheating wasn't almost expected.

Not necessarily. I usually am first off the tee and last one to putt.

If you want to win, have a good pencil.

Just have fun.

Have best go last.

They might like options if another ball is in play

I'd say the best player usually goes last, hoping that one of his partners gets one safe and he can freewheel it.

We usually make the weakest player play the safe shot first. And if he misses, the next best player tries to play safe.
This gives your 2 best players the ability to be aggressive.

This does vary in some parts of the game. One guy might be the best driver. One guy a really good putter.
We usually adjust after 2-3 holes when we get a chance to see how everyone's game is playing that day.

It depends on who I'm playing with. Other good players, I'll putt last. A bunch of higher handicaps, 1st because I can't really trust anything I see from them, i.e. putting lines.
