Shoot out is played with one more team than holes being played (any number of holes can be played). For example, 19 teams would participate in an 18 hole match and ten players/teams in a nine hole match. After each hole, the team with the highest score is eliminated. In the case of a tie (which will often happen while the field is large) a "chip off" is done and the team furthest from the hole is eliminated. Obviously the goal is to be the last team standing on the final green as they are declared champion and take home the Championship Title. When played in teams, alternate shot is generally the format; however this could be used for a singles event as well. Obviously this game takes quite a bit of time early on in the match, but is a very fun format to compete in.
