| Handicap calculations |
||||||||||
| 1 | Starting handicaps will be determined 1 of 3 ways: | |||||||||
| a. Established player uses handicap from the most recent year played in league. | ||||||||||
| b. New players can use their USGA handicap if they have one. | ||||||||||
| c. New players can give a "target " score. A "target" score would be an average 9 hole | ||||||||||
| score. A new golfer cannot shoot better than 3 strokes lower than their "target" score. | ||||||||||
| If they do, strokes will be added back to their score card from the highest handicap hole | ||||||||||
| back until their score meets the 3 stroke limit. Actual score will be used to calculate | ||||||||||
| the next weeks handicaps. | ||||||||||
| 2 | Handicaps will be calculated using the best 4 out of the last 6 scores. | |||||||||

| 5 | STROKE REDUCTION (Hole Scores) | |||||||||
| Stroke reduction is used to calculate an "Adjusted Gross Score" (AGS) for handicapping | ||||||||||
| purposes. Handicaps are NOT based of a golfers "Gross Score" rather they are based on | ||||||||||
| a golfer's "AGS". The purpose of an "AGS" is so one or two bad holes do not substantially | ||||||||||
| raise a golfers handicap. A score for any hole is reduced to a specific number of strokes | ||||||||||
| over par as indicated here. Stoke control has no effect on how points are calculated. | ||||||||||
| Points are determined using "Gross Scores" not "Adjusted Gross Scores". | ||||||||||
| New USGA - ELC Stoke Control | ||||||||||
| The New USGA ESC will be used. Maximum strokes per hole are allotted according to the | ||||||||||
| players handicap. | ||||||||||
