It always used to be the avarage of the 3 cards, but now I believe its the lowest card. Have a look on the CONGU website, I had a brief look but couldn't find it, but it must be there somewhere.
How do we calculate your handicap in the first instance?
We take the 3 scorecards you have submitted and then we calculate the 'nett differential score' for each card and choose the best card.
The 'nett differential score' = your gross score MINUS course SSS (standard scratch score)
However, in accordance with CONGU rules, we reduce any holes that are greater than 2 shots over par to be 2 shots over par. So, if you achieved a 7 on a par 4 then for the purposes of your handicap, we reduce it to 6.

So it looks like it is the best of the 3 cards. Also they will only count upto double bogie as you said.
