pairing for trip

Question
ken,  have a trip coming up.  8 guys   7 rounds.

We play 4-ball.  Seems to me with the number of guys and rounds, that each player should have everyone as a partner once and play against everyone twice.

I can't make it work.  HELP

Answer
Hi Marshall,

I don't think your assumptions are correct. I can provide you with a draw that minimizes the number of repeats, though, while partnering most players. I might be able to partner each player once. I won't know until I analyze it.

There would be a $30 fee for this, however. It's quite complex. Email me at [email protected] and we can arrange payment.
