Annual handicap review question

[Region3]

I didn't want to clog the other review thread up with my question, so thought I would ask the experts

For those of you who are or have been on handicap committees and understand the rules, could you please have a look at the following link.

It is my regular partner's record for the season, and he has just been cut a shot in the annual review and is confused as to why.

The only info that isn't there is that he was part of a winning yellowball team about a month ago, and got nowhere in both of our summer ko comps.

Does a cut for him sound right looking at that?

Thanks.

8 buffers or better in 12 qualifiers? I'd have been a lot harsher!

And deadly in the non qualifiers.

I think that's the reason for the cut

Absolutely

Really?

Not arguing, but I was 7 buffers or better from 11, plus I won more than him, yet I wasn't affected? Is that because they can't cut in an annual review to cat1 or is there something else I'm not seeing.

3 placings. Hardly deadly.

Plus he only placed in 2 of them because I was in his team

Spot on, you can only be cut into cat1 with the sanction of the County

Pretty sure you can only get to cat 1 with card cuts not annual review or ESR.

Gary, do you know if the cut has been calculated by the computer or the handicap sec done it ??

Reason I ask is that I have had 4 cuts, 2 x 0.1's and (i think) 4 or 5 buffers and my handicap has not been adjusted.

As I understand it, the computer throws up a list of names for consideration, then the committee make the final decision on each one, so there will be people the computer flags up but don't move and won't even know they were up for a possible change.

Whether our committee make decisions or just let the computer do it, I don't know.

He does seem like a '40pt expert'. Has he any relatives by the name 'Voce'?

I was of the belief that you should only play to or better your hcap 4 times a year.

Think that depends how many times you play a year! Bit hard to compare someone who plays 10 times and another who plays 300 times on that scale

I don't know of any club that has 300 qualifying competitions in 1 year.

All the 40+ point rounds are 4BBB, with the exception of the 3 club which was played from the ladies tees.

He's only done it twice. It sounds like its the number of buffers as well that's contributed to being flagged up.

Not sure anywhere I mentioned 300 qualifying comps either

I've played in 11. I'd guess rickg would have played in 50+. I think that's the point fundy was making.

 

[Phil2511]

I know, but I would have expected the 4 rounds to fall into the average qualifying season.

It could also be due to who did the cutting and the relationship the cutter has with who was cut.

The guy who won our singles put cards in for cuts during general play at weekends when Std Scratch would be known.
The hcap/comp sec didn't cut him. Until he had to play him in the singles then he cut him by 3 shots.
