Reasonable scores at a 4-man scramble

-20 is not unreasonable for a team that compliments each other well, particularly if one of the players is long off the tee.

Aiming for -18 tomorrow.

You’ll lose by 5 to a team of slapdick retards that play by their own rules.

Came in second at a 4 man scramble a few weekends ago with a -13.

Winning team was like 21 under and we probably had the two best golfers of the 8. One of the guys on the other team is "driving it 320" now though

12-15 is excellent score with typical ABCD players .

Fund raising tournaments usually have a lots of gimmicks. Mulligans, advance a tee box, string, etc.

Just need to relax and enjoy friends and golf. Too competitive.

Also depends on the course & setup. I’ve seen courses put the pin in some really stupid locations for a big scramble.

Won a four man scramble about five years ago. Had a guy on the team that refused to lose no matter what and by that I mean he controlled the pencil and the scorecard

And none of the other 3 players had the character or balls to tell him “no”?

I play in a few tournaments a year with my dad and his buddies. He has a buddy that hits it about 280 off the tee and in the fairway, and he is 70 and plays from the senior tees. That puts us way out there on every hole. I am a good wedge player and short iron player. My dad can't play much anymore but his other buddy is a good player overall.

Played in a scramble in Jackson MS one time and the group in front of us was hitting the ball all over the course and holding up the other groups. The group behind us had 2 Mississippi State golfers and had to wait for us to get off of the greens on short par 4 before they would hit. One or both would drive the green easy. We shot a honest -8, the group behind us shot -18, and the group if front of us shot -22. When they announced the winners, you could hear a pin drop. Oh and it rained on the last 9.
