Thanks guys this is very helpful

How would I work out what my "net score" per hole would be taking my handicap onto consideration?

Chris Perry

You have a playing handicap of 25.  That means you are allowed 2 shots on the 7 hardest holes on the course and 1 shot on the rest.  This is worked out by giving you a shot on every hole, and then giving the remaining 7 shots as 'extras' on the hardest holes.  The hardest holes are defined by the Stroke Index (SI), where the lower the number, the harder the hole.  So SI 1 is the hardest hole and SI 18 is the easiest.  So you will get; -

• 2 shots on holes SI 1 to 7
• 1 shot on holes SI 8 to 18

Your net score is what you actually shoot (the gross score) on the hole, minus the number of shots you are allowed on that hole.  For example: -

• You shoot a gross 6 on the Par 4 SI 4 hole.  You are allowed 2 shots on this hole so your net score is 6-2 = 4.  This is net par so you get 2 points
• You shoot a gross 6 on the Par 4 SI 12 hole.  You are allowed 1 shot on this hole so your net score is 6-1 = 5.  This is net bogey so you get 1 point

As you get more than one shot on some holes, the SI is important to you to work out your score.  Hope that helps

Once you start working your scores out as you play it will become clearer to you.

The explanations on here are very good.
