So, let's say you are in the following situation.
You have no chance of winning the competition but you still have 4 holes to play.
Do you try your best? If you do well you will get cut.

That is not what I was trying to say, you could do exactly what you describe under UHS.

You could but you'd maybe go up by 0.1. The incentive to do that didn't exist. The WHS has created opportunities for players that we never thought possible.

If you did it 7 times in a row you may well have been put up an extra shot in UHS.
Handicap manipulation existed under UHS, just it is easier (with poor oversight) to do it under WHS.

I never had a UHS handicap. Could everybody else at your club see every round that you recorded?

Yes you could see it using the clubs ISV player interface - IG or HDID etc

You have no chance to win the competition but have 18 holes left to play.
Do you play ?
A lot of our low guys are choosing not to bother.

Are they also pulling out of playing for the Club at team level or refusing any prizes from Club scratch comps?
A lot of our low guys certainly don’t bother with single division board comps and team events.

It’s why I don’t like live leaderboards.
But if you have a coffee before your tee time someone always chimes up,, there’s a 46 pts in

At team level everyone’s off scratch. So no sandbaggers there.
Anyone with a vanity cap soon gets found out in that company!
We only have one scratch comp the Club Championship!

Some of ours have never bothered, WHS or UHS. Some of them enter every comp, the best players focus on scratch comps in the Region, supporting the Club when they can.

How is your Team funded? Ours comes from Comp Fees, so all the hackers are actually supporting these guys for Clothing and food, plus the end of season prizes also.

Just counted the number of players in my club who are scratch or better, 35.

Jeez that’s a lot.
They could have their own comp every week!
We have four but even they are going out to 1/2 then down again.

No prizes for the team scratch league.
Club Champ gets the trophy and a voucher in pro shop equivalent to the monthly medal.
All comps have the same monetary prize.
