We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!
I can set up a competition on HandicapMaster for any course but it cannot be handicap counting. EG said its down to the ISV , practically all of them won't allow you to do handicap counting for an away day.
Thanks for all your replies.
I still don't understand why the restriction is in place, whereby away scores can't be processed on a home club ISV in the same way home club comps are.
On one hand they want to encourage as many rounds to be input as possible into WHS. And on the other they put...
Correct. There is normally a link when we play our comps at Home of course, but not Away. The link doesn't then exist, there must be a good reason why this is but I can't see one.
A few reasons, to produce the results sheet, resolve any countbacks, plus we have 4 away days a year and we have a overall champion prize best 3 from 4.

Thanks, the only downside is that they have to enter card twice, once into EG and again into handicapmaster.
Not sure why any if this is needed though, why not just let me use handicap counting for Away courses?
It is strange I don't know why it is. I assume it's the same for all handicap ISVs. I've never come across this before but we've never wanted to make Away days handicap qualifying till now. I didn't expect it to be difficult, just choose the Away course, tick handicap counting and job done.
No...
Handicap qualifying/counting.
At Home we choose non handicap counting or handicap counting. The latter is 99% the case.
With club competitions on a Away course you can't choose, it's always Non handicap counting.
So what's the best way to get those scores into the WHS so that they are counted...
Thanks, that's pretty much where I think I am with it. Seems bonkers to me that I can't just send the scores wholesale to WHS just like it was a Home competition.
Worst case no one bothers and I have 40 scorecards to enter. Doesn't seem right to me.
EG either want the scores or they don't...
