Handicaps (buffer zone)

[balaclava]

Can anyone explain to me why this handicap did not go up 0.1


SSS CSS Ident Gross Score Hcp Nett Score Stab Adj 19.1 Adj Gross Score
72 75 QRZ 111 26 85 0 111


Stab/Par Score Par Gross Diff Nett Diff Hcap Adj Rev Exact Rev Play HC
0 72 36 10 0.0 5.8 26


Thanks

Sorry but for some reason the numbers have been concatinated but the net diff is 10

Have a read at this. http://www.mygolfexperience.com/golf/uk/golf-handicap.asp

THe only reason I can see is that the little phrase "R/O" or "Reductions Only" is missing after CSS 75.

 

[Foxholer]

That's what the QRZ indicates. Qualifying; Reduction Only; Strokeplay.

 

[Imurg]

That's what the QRZ indicates. Qualifying; Reduction Only; Strokeplay.

And in which language can a sane person extrapolate Qualifying; Reduction Only; Strokeplay from QRZ.....?

or do we play Ztrokeplay now...?

Handicapmaster uses 3-letter identifiers on players' handicap records. I tried to show them all in a reply but there were 13,000 characters too many (there didn't seem that many). Here's the first column:

P.S.

They came out different to the way they went in, you will have to visually juggle the lines about a bit.

Aren't TLAs wonderful!

 

[garyinderry]

shot 34 today. really hope i made the buffer !

 

[balaclava]

Back again.

It seems to me that it comes down to how the net diff is calculated (how is it calculated)? Or more specifically how is the 'stableford adjustment' calculated (how is that calculated)?

My HC is 17.9 (18) yesterday I shot a gross 91 including a 9 on a par4 and two 8's on two par 5's. The system calculated the 'stableford adjustment' as -2. Why was it not -5 (i.e. 3 shot off the 9 on the par 4 and 1 shot off each of the 8's on the par 5's)?

(Note the course par is 69 SSS was 68, CSS was 68 and the indent was QZH)

The 9 goes down to a gross 7/nett 6, (nett double bogey on a par 4), but the 8s stay as gross 8, nett 7 (nett double bogey on par 5s), so -2 is correct.

 

[louise_a]

stableford adjustment in a competiton rounds down to a net double bogey so the 9 becomes a 7, and 8s on the par 5s are already a net double bogey so no stableford adjustment required.
