How to mark card in bogey competition for handicap

[Foxholer]

I was wrong!

Rosie's reference to Appendix D made me check the UHS manul. Just as there's no additional benefit for a birdie on a stroke hole, a loss by 1 shot counts as much/little for handicap as a loss by 2 or more would.

Apologies Chris; thanks Rosie!

So no need to hole out once hole is lost - though no damage (apart from time) if you do. The comp could have been left as qualifying though.

I did point you to appendix D in my post number 16 - it does take a man to apologise and I unreservedly accept it , thanks Foxholer.
