A Bandit is a term associated with a player who plays a round better than they normally do, but it is sometimes used to describe an outright cheat by people who are not likely to say so. A cheat is a cheat by their deliberate actions.
The Logistics of every round being carded and checked for h/c continuity would be difficult.
After a win, if life is made harder for the golfer then they are more likely to work harder to keep their new impressive h/c or to compete more to get their h/c up to a competitive level again, all of which is good for golf.
Losing point 1 or 2 after winning a comp is laughable.
Docking half the strokes they came in under h/c to win is probably the best way Ive considered. just imagine a 24h/c player comming in 10 under h/c to win a comp, suddenly becomming a 19 h/c.
I say make h/c life harder for everyone respectively, if people struggle to play to h/c thats how it should be and anyone who consistantly plays below h/c frequently should have a lower h/c, myself included.
There are lots of us on here shooting below frequently when you should only do this occasionally.
My h/c is wrong for my frequent ability, but perhaps in relation to everyone else its balanced on paper, but its never balanced on the course.
Difficulty is a great leveler
