Go on then. I am 21.0 (having gone UP 5 shots in 4 years, which takes some doing). But I am on the way back, so my target is 18.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that 50 qualifying comps in 4 years and going up 0.1 in each one :eek:

Did you have an arm amputated? (that's a joke by the way ;) )

Hence my reply Fish.

If I was doing that i would have tried my arm at something like ballroom dancing. I have said I will hang my clubs up if I do not loose 3 shots, if I gained any I would forget golf for life. :(

what are these 'end of season reviews' people mention?

H/cap calculated after each round and doesn't change for the next season, or is this something that some clubs do?

Saw this in the mag this month so thought I'd join in the fun and games.....

After a pretty shocking winter where my handicap has risen 0.1 far too many times for my liking I now find myself off 18.5 (2 shots on 12!! WOOOO!!)

My target for this year is 15 (much like it was last year unfortunately), I'll hopefully get out and practise more this year than I did last though.

I will update later and post the link, any I have missed can let me know and I will add. cut off is next thursday as its then the bank holiday weekend

I will do monthly updates to handicaps if needed so as to add a bit of pressure if someone gets a decent cut, 0.1's wont make a massive difference so will only change if gone up 2 shots or more (I personally wouldnt want to post that bit of info on here anyway :p )

Clubs can and will before the start of a season review scores from the previous years comps, our does. They may feel that you have scored very well with the exception of a single hole consistently, which should be taken into consideration anyway, but will then after consideration of looking back at scores adjust your handicap accordingly.

I know players around me that have been cut 2 & 3 shots on a review.
