My handicap has come down from 11 to 9 over the last couple of years.

I've just checked something on HowdidIdo and saw my hole averages:

Wondered how these compare to others of a similar handicap:

Par 3 = 3.6

Par 4 = 4.8

Par 5 = 5.6

I appreciate everyone's courses are different...

I keep my own stats, some of the rounds are in HDID from the odd competition I've entered, but for the most part as a 20hc I'm averaging double bogey on all pars.

Great thread. I don’t have a handicap so these numbers are useful to estimate one. So far I think my handicap would be around 327.

Nice to see some improvement in Par 4 and Par 5 scoring.

Well mine are pretty ugly looking.
3: 4.0
4: 5.6
5: 6.6

Handicap 21. There is only one par 5 on our course so that par 5 average is just my average score on the 10th hole, ha.

Hcp 19

My HDID figures are
Par 3 = 4.0
Par 4 = 5.3
Par 5 = 6.3

However we play lots of stablefords and the HDID figures completely ignore zero scores, so when I adjust my zeroes to nett doubles I get
Par 3 = 4.3
Par 4 = 5.5
Par 5 = 6.8

I definitely think my 19 isn't correct :-(

Earlier on in the season I was

2.9 - 3
4.8 - 4
4.5 - 5

All kinda went a bit pear shaped now but was impressive at the time.

For this season I am

Par 3 - 3.86
Par 4 - 5.18
Par 5 - 5.5

Average score for the season is 86. Play the front better at 42.60 to the back at 43.40. Clearly need to work on my approach game for the par 4's I think.

9 hc started at 15

Par 3 - 3.8
Par 4 - 4.8
Par 5 - 5.6

My course has 5 par 3's and 3 par 5's. I find the 3's pretty tough, we have 3 of them that are over 190 yards with quite narrow but long greens. Shortest one usually plays around 155 with the wind normally across and into.
