Unofficial Handicaps

[Parsaregood]

I am from the home of golf is there a possibility it may be different from the English rules

The above answers are true but perhaps not particularly helpful.....

Are you using the golfshake thing to "accurately" measure you're progress handicap wise as you would if you were a member of a club? If yes, then I wouldn't enter it for the reason's you've given.

If you're not that bothered in that sense then I'd just enter every score I get. Does it give you increases etc if you have a bad round? Never looked so not sure what it does etc

This is more like what I'm after. I appreciate I can do what I like but I want it to be as close as it can be to a real handicap. Not sure if it gives an increase but can't see why not. Cheets guys.

No.

Hc secretary told me it was 200 yards off measured length less than a month ago

 

[Parsaregood]

I'll do a bit of research but he seemed pretty sure it was 200 yards

He was wrong.

You can go to CONGU and download the manual.

Or you can phone CONGU tomorrow if you prefer, all the numbers are on their website.

What research do you need to do ?

It's in the Congu Manual which is the UHS for all the Golf Unions

You have even be given the Clause number 13.1

Maybe give your HC Sec this link

It might help him ensure he makes the correct decision

Must be time for a referendum on it up there I reckon.....

You said on the other thread you play Golf at a links course that doesn't use mats in winter!
All courses at St Andrews do from Nov to Feb I believe,

You need to stop digging.

Amazing, the research has already been done for you and you have been given the correct advice from a h/c and comp. secretary who knows what he's talking about,find it hard how you can't accept this with good grace.

Might be a good idea to have a word with your H/c sec. to put him right.
