Hi,

could you please explain on an example of players with specific handicaps, how the following game format is being played?

4 Ball Better Ball Match Play off handicap with a stroke allowance of 90% from the lowest player in the group

Thank you!
 
Ok four players

HCs are

5 Player A
9 Player B
16 C
19 D

So everyone's shot situation is from the 5 HC

So as an example the 9 HC works out his shots from 5 HC so he gets 90% of the difference

So difference is 4 and 90% of that is 3.6 so they get 4 shots

And follow that for every player

16 HC gets 90% of 11 which is 9.9 so 10 shots

19 HC gets 90% of 14 which is 12.6 so 13 shots

The shots each person gets is on the SI of the hole

So player B gets his shot on SI holes 1-4

Hope that helps
