Are You A Potential Bandit?

[sweaty sock]

PBR = 1.0
IR = 1.8

Basically donating my money then....

Heres three more data points for your graphs (for the family).

Player 1
PBR = (26.1 – 23.7) = 2.2
IR = (28 – 23.7) = 4.3

Player 2
PBR = (33.0 – 29.9) = 3.1
IR = (36.1 – 29.9) = 6.2

Player 3
PBR = (1.4 – (-2.1) = 3.5
IR = (2.7 – (-2.1) = 4.8

We take note that the very low handicapper has the largest bandit rating (although not a bandit)

Where are all the high handicap bandits that we've been hearing about all year. I wonder?

 

[LincolnShep]

PBR = 16.2 - 12.4 = 3.8
IR = 19.2 - 12.4 = 6.8

 

[Voyager EMH]

PBR = 16.2 - 12.4 = 3.8
IR = 19.2 - 12.4 = 6.8

Maybe only two scores away from the seriously boring club. Along with @Vikingman (who I apologise to for ignoring for 48 hours) who is possibly only one score away from achieving this noble distinction.

I'd make a terrible bandit

Yes, you should be shooting all bandits with your silver bullets.

Loads of bandits out there. One well known Irish trilby tour legend consistently wins big prizes and his handicap continues to go up not down.

 

[Bdill93]

PBR - 16.1-11.9 = 4.2

IR - 18.4-11.9 = 6.5

I think thats alright after 18 months. The 18.4 should easily fall of in my next comp, ive improved a lot since then.

 

[Deleted member 15717]

PBR : 3.0 - 1 = 2.0

IR : 4.2 - 1 = 3.2

Whatever that means

 

[Orikoru]

Potential Bandit Rating = Handicap Index minus Best Differential

And

Inconsistency Rating = 8th Best Differential minus Best Differential

15.0 - 12.4 = 2.6

16.1 - 12.4 = 3.7

Bandit…Yes probably - for the time being…but again probably only in matches.

Until my best 8 gives a better refection of my stretch ability, and I have cleared the dross out of my last 20 as there is a load of dross in there as I have been working on the transition from old swing to new swing.

So … in my most recent match with PH of 10 I only dropped 6 shots in 16 holes of match play - and won on 17. My triple on the 2nd would have seen me dropping 9 in strokeplay…and against a PH of 10 that’s not banditland.

 

[Barking_Mad]

PBR = (14.1 – 12.6) = 1.5
IR = (19.3 - 12.6) = 6.7

 

[bladeplayer]

Are you a potential bandit with a huge difference between your best score and your average score?

Do these two simple calculations and let us compare ourselves.

I’m not trying to prove a point I merely thought this might stimulate some amusing comments.

Potential Bandit Rating = Handicap Index minus Best Differential

And

Inconsistency Rating = 8th Best Differential minus Best Differential

Me:

PBR = (3.0 – 1.9) = 1.1

IR = (5.2 – 1.9) = 3.3

Pbr (7.7 - 7.5 ) = .2
IR (8.0 - 7.5 ) = .5

 

[Voyager EMH]

Pbr (7.7 - 7.5 ) = .2
IR (8.0 - 7.5 ) = .5

I'm afraid the title of "World Leader" has already been allocated.

How about "Consistency Overlord of the Golfing Galaxy" will that do? (COGG for short)

 

[Voyager EMH]

PBR : 3.0 - 1 = 2.0

IR : 4.2 - 1 = 3.2

Whatever that means

It means your comprehension and arithmetic are as good as your golf. And welcome to the SBC.

FWIW...
PBR (5.7-3.6) = 2.1
IR (6.4-3.6) = 2.8
