there are bigger problems in the world than how PCC is calculated!
Agreed. Can we rule a line under this thread?

If there are 100 cards submitted on a given day, then whether a PCC adjustment is made at all, and how much, is only 1% in an individual player’s control and 99% outside that individual’s control.

On any given day, most likely the PCC adjustment will be 0. Occasionally it will be 1 or 2. Very, very rarely it might be 3. Equally rarely it might be -1.

On the very, very rare occasions that it is 3, it is going impact an individual’s HI by a maximum of 0.375, but there is a 60% chance that round won't count in the player’s counting scores at all.

So if a (maximum but but very rare) impact of 0.375 on their HI is important to anybody, then rather than spending time on a discussion of PCC, which is 99% out of their control anyway, their time might be better spent practising their putting or chipping, or learning how to hit the ball straighter or longer, or....now here's a thought....studying the Rules of Golf so they can use the Rules to their advantage and not get hoodwinked by their fellow competitors.

Since we got re-rated in the summer, and our slopes and CRs got reduced, We've seen pcc set to 3 after the majority of comp days..... With fields of 40 or 50 plus visitors and a few casual players before and after. Hcps not creeping up at all, as I've would have expected given the reduction of course ratings
