Low ball is a foursome game of golf played as two teams of two. Two points are available per hole in the round. There are two variants of the game, low total and high ball. If any hole is tied, then no points are awarded. Playing low total, a point is given to the low ball and another to the low total. In high ball, low ball again is worth one point, and the lower of the high ball scores is also worth a point. With high ball, the teams compare their low ball and best high ball scores for each hole. The team with most points wins the game.
