Handicap Calculations
- Step Back Scramble - 50% of the teams average handicap. Compare to the other teams handicap. Find the difference (round down) and apply strokes (dots) to the hardest ranked holes.
- Individual Match Play - Each Match will only give strokes to one player. Subract the higher hdc from the lower hdc and give up that amount of strokes on the hardest ranked holes. ie, if im a 10 and your'e a 7, you would give me three shot on each of the 3 hardest ranked holes by placing a dot in the scoreing collumn for those holes (the dot indicates that player recieves a net shot on the hole).
- 2 Man Best Ball - Handicaps will be calculated of the lowest handicap of the 4 players for each of the two matches. If the lowest handicap is a 10 and the other handicaps are 12, 13, and 15. The 10 will not recieve and net strokes The 12 will recieve two net strokes (dots), the 13 will recieve three net strokes (dots) and the 15 will recieve five net strokes (dots) to be applied to the hardest ranked holes.
- 2 Man Scramble - Add each teammates hdc together and divide by 4. Compare to your opponents team handicap and apply the difference to the hardest ranked holes.
- 2 Man Chapman - Average the two players handicaps. Compare to your opponents team handiap and apply the difference to the hardest ranked holes.
