Missed the webinar unfortunately. Will that be after the round when inputting scores? I can see a few problems if it is before.

For example under the new calculation of CH using CR - par I will receive one shot less as our CR is 0.4 less than par and the roundings on that particular calculation will take the handicap down whereas the previous calculation took it up. Hence one stroke lower on course handicap. If I then,on...

True but the adjusted gross score might have due to the change in calculation of course handicap

Also if you have lost or gained a shot due to CR-par calculation net double bogey on hole will have changed so could impact on differential calculation.

Had a mixed tee greensome medal today and several handicaps on ClubV1 differed to what I had calculated on the mixed tee calculator from England Golf. An allowance adjustment of 0.9 added to the course handicap allowance of for example 23.6 on the calculator gave a team handicap of 25 whereas...

Thanks. I’m sure thats the explanation. Would have been nice to have some notice.

Previously just EG but today both. So for example a competition entered with a WHI of 16.5 (EG index at time) has now changed to 16.3. Therefore actual card differs. My handicap on the other hand unfortunately went up 0.2, although on the positive side I have now gained a stroke in a knockout...

Yesterday Club V1 handicap differed from EG, only by 0.2 (but did affect affect number of strokes received) but now the same. Past record of handicaps for rounds has also changed. Probably wishful thinking but would be nice to know the cause ?

I am the ladies handicap secretary at my club and several handicaps have changed mine included and I haven’t played. I was wondering if any other clubs were encountering problems. Perhaps a software update at EG has affected rounding calculations.

On a different matter my WHI has changed this week without a card being submitted nd I know of another member that it has happened to. Has anyone any ideas please?

Course rating + course handicap - not much penalty would be one of my best eight. I can see some players happy with that outcome.

Anyone tried the friend function on EG yet. Strangely my index which I actually think is right is different when looked at on friend’s EG page. Same platform two different indexes, something’s not right.
