Course Handicap Table explained *May 5th update*

• At the moment we are not accepting supplementary cards played outside of our Weds/Sat/Sun “Handicap Card Return” events, due to issues with the competition course.

Your current Handicap index is based on your best 8 scores from your last 20 qualifying rounds. When playing at home you are allocated a course Handicap based on this > Course Handicap Table.

• If playing a Stableford/Strokeplay Competition you will receive 95% of your allotted Course Handicap

• Only rounds played with WHS qualifying conditions will count towards your best 8 scores.

For those still reading:

•  using a 29.9 handicapper as an example; they will have a course Handicap of 31, at 95%, their Competition Playing Handicap = 29. 
• >>Click here for the illustrated guide to World Handicapping System<<  

When playing at an away Course your Handicap will change as per their Course Handicap Table. If it’s a casual round it will be the full allotted course Handicap and if it’s in a Stableford/Strokeplay Competition you will receive 95%

I know this is all very confusing for us all, but it will bed in over time.
