Thought some guys in this region would like this. Although to be fair, they are going to be gone VERY quickly.

I love me some Alt Shot. I dig shamble, but not a fan of scramble. Could get down with some straight up better ball as well.

Honestly, any format will be awesome. Alt shot, shamble, scramble, straight up match

I like the idea of getting one in the fairway and letting your partner get after it with his. Same on par 3. Drop in something safe and then go flag hunting.

As the ultimate teammate, I am ready for any format. Whatever is best for the team is fine with me. Just as long as we're playing golf and having a little fun.

You really can't go wrong with competitive team golf w/ THPers. That's the best golf there is.

I'd like to see a mix of best ball and scramble. Honestly, any format is going to be awesome but I think some low scores from best ball and scramble would be fun.

Question for you fellas. In a scramble format or shamble for that matter, what's your preference on going first or second?
For me personally it doesn't matter going first or second except for putting. I much prefer going first when putting but for anything else it doesn't bother me either way.

Easy to say when you know you'll be in the middle of the fairway.
Couldn't agree any more on the putting aspect. I'm of the belief that you can't see "pace," so just because a putt breaks one ball outside left for my partner, doesn't mean it'll react the same way for me.
Other than that, also like you, it doesn't matter to me one bit going first, last, whatever.

Perfect so when we're teamed up you putt first on odd holes and I'll take even and we'll just not watch each other!

No preference whatsoever, going 1st I usually let it ride and going 2nd will depend on how we currently lie after my teammates shot. I'm happy in either slot, I really like having a teammate that likes both and goes with the ebbs and flows of the round, if the hole sets up to my eye and I'm feeling good, I want to go 1st and am comfortable enough to tell my teammate that and I hope my teammate would reciprocate that if they wanted the Green Light on a hole.

I'll go wherever is best for the team. Seriously. I'm not a long ball hitter off the tee, but I've gone anywhere from 1-3 in a 4 man scramble and it's never been a problem for me. If my captain wants me to play in a certain place, then that's what I'm going to do, and play to my strengths and help my teammate(s).

Off the tee I like to go first since chances are I'm the shorter hitter and want to put one in the fairway so my partner can go after one. On other shots I actually prefer to go second if there isn't a situation me needing to play one safe. I actually like the pressure on me. Putting I can go first or second, I think without seeing someone roll a bunch of putts it's hard to gain a lot of knowledge off of watching them putt first. In the end I'm comfortable going first or second with all shots and will defer to my partners preference.
Wherever I can help the most. I've gone first and gone last. It doesn't make a big difference to me either way.

Just make sure you get that good warm up in and don't have to use the first few holes for it

This is so true but it won't be a problem being midseason plus range time will be had before the rounds. My last few rounds were really ugly for the first 5-6 holes.
