I played in a scramble one time that had mulligans and “throws”. Each player could pick up their ball and throw it anywhere they wanted and it wouldn’t count as a stroke. That was pretty awesome.

Best one I ever played in was called "The Supers Revenge!"

Pin locations on edge of a ridge on a two tiered green
One was three inches from the back of the green...

one he even put the hole off the green on the fringe.

He has a hole where he stuck the flag in the ground on the right side of the green but when you got up there you realized the actual hole was on the left side.

He had a hole where he put a tee in every unrepaired or poorly repaired pitch mark from the previous weekend and you had to putt around and through them...

Par 5s that were cart path only...

Sprinklers going off right in front of the tee box...

one par 5 was played as a par 4...

they double rolled a green to make it super fast but the rest were normal...

two holes where they switched the tee to green path (ie tee off from #6 tee box but play across a pond or parallel fairways to the #9 green, and then 9 tee box to 6 green)...

this was a fun tournament and all the money went to buying new greens mowers for the super and his crew. If your course hasn't ever done something like this, give it a recommendation.
