2025 - Updates

 We are getting close to 2025 Golf League. 

A few changes this year are in the works. We are staying at 14 teams with a few changes.

Schedule posted below (subject to change - start date is weather dependent, Course will need to confirm which nine we start on, etc.)

Dues is $65 this year (made some adjustments to payouts, and software cost went up, secretary got a raise)

General league rules still in place . . .

• can improve your lie within 6" anywhere except hazards
• gimmes up to foursome (please keep skin game in mind if your giving a putt to player getting strokes)
• no need to play stroke and distance - if you hit OB off tee, just move up and drop in approximately the spot ball went out.
• There is a small range in between 1 and 3 . . . if you hit into this area, you can move your ball to keep from getting shelled with range balls - prefer you play it as it lies . . . but no need to get concussed.
• Course holds water often - ball can be moved out of casual water without penalty - even in bunker. Prefer that you stay in bunker if possible, but you do you.
• Play one type of ball the entire hole - Can't play the Unold method of distance ball off tee, then switch to softer ball for approach, then another for putting. C'mon man.
• Please keep your card legible and total up scores. Circle Birdies please. (Secretary gets bitchy trying to decipher your chicken scratch)

Player A has 30 scores to calculate a handicap.
Only the last 20 scores are considered for handicapping.
0 high score and 0 low score will be dropped and the
remaining 20 scores used to calculate the handicap.

2. The variations for these scores are calculated...

Event #	Description	Adjusted Gross Score	Scratch par	Variation
1	Practice score	53	35.2	17.8
1	Practice score	46	34.0	12.0
1	Practice score	47	35.2	11.8
1	Practice score	50	34.0	16.0
1	Practice score	49	35.2	13.8
1	Practice score	44	34.0	10.0
1	Practice score	43	35.2	7.8
1	Practice score	44	34.0	10.0
1	Practice score	46	35.2	10.8
1	Practice score	49	34.0	15.0
1	Practice score	49	34.0	15.0
1	Practice score	50	35.2	14.8
1	Practice score	45	34.0	11.0
1	Practice score	44	35.2	8.8
1	Practice score	46	34.0	12.0
1	Practice score	45	35.2	9.8
1	Practice score	51	35.2	15.8
1	Practice score	48	34.0	14.0
1	Practice score	43	35.2	7.8
1	Practice score	45	34.0	11.0
1	Practice score	44	34.0	10.0
1	Practice score	47	35.2	11.8
1	Practice score	46	34.0	12.0
1	Practice score	45	35.2	9.8
1	Practice score	55	34.0	21.0
1	Practice score	46	35.2	10.8
1	Practice score	46	35.2	10.8
1	Practice score	43	34.0	9.0
1	Practice score	44	34.0	10.0
1	Practice score	47	35.2	11.8

The equation for calculating a variation is ...
Variation = 'Adjusted Gross Score' - 'Scratch par'

3. Use the variations to calculate handicap

Variations 'used' are added together...
7.8 + 7.8 + 8.8 + 9.8 + 10.0 + 10.0 + 10.8 + 11.0 + 11.0 + 11.8 + 12.0 + 12.0 + 13.8 + 14.0 + 14.8 + 15.0 + 15.0 + 15.8 + 16.0 + 17.8 = 245.0

Then divide by the total number used.
Pre-Handicap = 245.0 / 20 = 12.250

Player A is a regular player, so according to the setup the Handicap Percent is 80%
Handicap = 12.250 x 80% = 9.8000 (Digits after hundredth place are deleted)


Final Handicap = 9.80

When converted to whole number, handicap is rounded to 10
