Can’t wait for this, we playing singles or a pairs game for some added needle

4BBB or pairs matchplay? Makes the rubbish shots / holes not quite so painful then

4bbb seems a good option.

Looking forward to it

Full index handicaps?
Yellows or whites ?

As per the rules, 90% of the difference. I think I can speak for myself & Lord T in going for the Yellow tees, not fond of hitting 3 woods into par 3s & 4s

Happy to wave at you teeing off on the whites from the yellow tees

 

[ManinBlack]

Tell me what your index is Splashy and I'll calculate the allowances. I'm 12.5, which translates to 15 off the yellow tees. Lord T's 18.2 works out at 21 & Beezerk's impressive 9 becomes 11.

Is that 'machine accurate', Bill??

100% I have a regularly updated spreadsheet of all the allowances for the folks I play with.

Also in IG there is a handicap calculator for every format

But is that for all HI's? Just using the rounded CH on a calculator can produce 1 shot errors.... & as Rory can confirm, one shot can make a big difference.

 

[splashtryagain]

My index is 9.3

It doesn't tell you who gets what from whom in matchplay

 

[ManinBlack]

My index is 9.3

So that gives you 11 too unless, as the host, you insist on white tees!

Yes it does

 

[ManinBlack]

Yes it does

You have to pay to use it?
