Most charity events use a scramble — it's fun, fast, and friendly for all skill levels. Here's the difference:
- Scramble (recommended): Everyone on the team hits, you pick the best shot, and everyone plays from there. One team score per hole. Great for mixed-ability groups.
- Best ball: Everyone plays their own ball; the team takes the lowest score on each hole.
- Stroke play: Each player's individual total. More competitive/serious events.
- Stableford: A points-based system. Redswing counts Stableford as total strokes for now, so the leaderboard shows strokes, not points.
When in doubt, choose scramble. You can change the format in your event settings before the event.
