Definition: A bramble starts off just like a scramble: the members of each team (usually four players per team) tee off, and the best drive is selected. In a scramble, this process continues until the ball is holed, producing one team score.
However, in a bramble, after the best drive is selected, all players play from that spot but then continue playing their own ball, stroke-play style, until each has holed out, producing four individual scores.
The bramble tournament also goes by the name of "shamble." The team score can be the one low ball of the group, the two low balls, or some other variation depending on the tournament director's instructions.
