Shotgun Start

A shotgun start is a method used in golf tournaments where players begin their rounds at different holes around the course simultaneously, each team starting on a specified hole, often with a signal like a shot from a shotgun. This approach allows all groups to play at the same time, making the event more efficient and organized, especially for large groups. It reduces wait times and ensures that the entire course is in use evenly, making it ideal for tournaments with many participants or limited daylight.
