Best ball can be played using 2-, 3- or 4-person teams. Each player on the team plays his or her own golf ball throughout the round, and on each hole the low score - or "best ball" - of the group serves as the team score. You may also choose how many balls to count for the best ball. It will then combine that number of "best balls" to calculate the team score

Train Wreck    [more]
This game is similar to a Stableford where players are awarded points for their score on each hole. The kicker to this game is that if a player makes a double bogey, or 2 bogeys in a row, they lose all the points they have accumulated. Hence the name "Train Wreck".
