Best Type of Group Holiday

The most popular type of group holiday is found in the UK.

These 1 night, 2 round breaks are very popular for groups looking to play 2 different courses as part of their golf trip.

These types of golf trip are taken at a host of different golf venues in the UK with the likes of The Belfry with its onsite nightclub The Belair and 3 great golf courses a firm favourite.

The Best Game Formats for Group Golf Travel

Medal - 2 rounds of Medal with no gimmies?

Well, surprisingly enough this isn’t a popular choice when travelling as a group on a golf break. The most popular picks are pairs matchplay or better ball where you select the best score on each hole to give your pair a stableford score that can be compared to against the rest of your group. Typically anything around 45 points and more for this format is considered well into the realms of bandit territory.

Another good option if you have even teams of 4 is 4-ball better ball, this involves taking the best 2 stableford scores on each hole, par for the team would be 72 points but in this format scores tend to be around 80 with any teams getting more than 90 expected to be called bandits for the rest of the golf trip.

Game formats we suggest for groups

  • Stableford

  • 4-Ball Better Ball

  • Greensomes

  • Texas Scramble

  • 6 Point Game
