|  |     I work with a guy who used to be a golf pro and he isn't familiar with
    Texan Four Ball, however, he did suggest you put your request for help
    in the golf notes file (if you haven't already).  Just add entry
    MSEE::GOLF.

    PJ,
       First off, I have no idea what a Texas 4-ball is, but I do know
    that if your limited to 3 hrs, plan on a 9 hole tournament. 
       Anyway, the tournament I think is best for all levels of hackers
    is a scramble (which just might be a Texas 4-ball). 
       4 person teams. Everyone hits their tee shot. You decide which
    is the best drive and the other 3 people would then pick up their
    golf balls, go over to where the best drive ended up and all 4 of
    you would hit from there. You continue this way until you reach
    the green. Decide which putt is easiest and everyone putts from
    that spot.
       If that isn't too clear, or you need more info, you can contact
    me via VAXmail at WFOOFF::MORRISON. If you send anything ALL-IN-1
    I'll get it, but I'm not sure how to address it.

    Thanks for the help!!
    
    It looks like "Texan 4 Ball"  is a version of Mike's Scramble. 
    The only uncertainty is...how do you score???
    
    When I get the rules, I'll post them!

       Re. Scoring
          After you all hit your drive and decide which is the
    best, that's consider 1 stroke. The 4 of then hit your second
    shots and decide which is best (for this example we'll say that
    the best ball is on the green). You've now taken your 2nd shot.
    If one of you makes the putt, you have a 3. The team score is 3.
    It's sort of like 1 person going out and playing 4 balls at a
    time.
         If you want to make the teams even, have 1 good player, 2
    average players and 1 players who's only played miniature golf :^>
