My handicap

Handicap : 19.7

Posted : Sun 18th Oct 2009 19:42

Hi,

I played today scoring 40 points which I was extremely happy with.  I was looking forward to seeing how much my handicap would be cut by but it hasn't moved.

I was playing a par 70 course with SSS 66.

Someone I was playing with thought it would be cut by about 2.4.

Can anyone tell me how it is worked out and what I would needed to have scored to get a cut?

Cheers.

Handicaps are based on the SSS. So whilst you shot 94 the SSS was a lot lower than the Par at 66 of which the diff is 28 and thus your handicap.

Thanks Darren.  Guess I'll have to try a bit harder.

Richard, the Priors course does catch many people out with having a par of 70, but a SSS of 66 from the yellow tees.

See me at next months game and I'll explain to you how you can calculate any handicap reductions.
