Shamble

A tournament game for teams of four, where each player plays from the position of the best-teed off ball. Each player tees off; then the team determines which player’s ball is in the most favorable position and all players move their balls to that spot. They each play from that spot, to the hole (Kelley, About.com). On the next hole they repeat, teeing off, moving to the position of the best-located ball and playing through from there. Handicaps are taken into account on scoring, although some tournaments count only the lowest score or lowest three scores as the team’s score. This kind of tournament is also called a bramble.
