Any ideas for a ladies member guest golf theme as opposed to golf format?

You could do better ball, where both players play out the hole with their own ball and the lowest score is taken. Scramble, where both players hit a drive, take the best one, both players hit the approach, take the best one, and then both hit the putt, take the best one. Foursomes, Player A hits the drive on the odd holes, player B hits the approach and so on, on the even holes player B hits the tee shot, and player A hits the approach etc. Or greensomes, where both players hit a tee shot, the best one is taken, whoever's tee shot is not chosen hits the approach and the rest of the hole is player out in alternate shots from there.

Will a golf ball travel farther than any other golf ball when hit by a golf club if the golf ball bounces higher than the other golf balls when dropped from the same distance?

Yes, theoretically.

The golf ball's rate of transferring energy (in this case elastic) is dependent on its COR (coefficient of restitution) - which is basically a rate of how rigid the shell is.

In simple words, yes. The golf ball that bounces higher than other golf balls is bouncier than the other golf balls. If you hit a rubber ball with a golf club, the ball should travel farther than all the regular golf balls.
