4.3

Best 0.2 and 8th best 6.2 - a great range of exactly 6.

Highest in last 20 is 14.7 and I really didn't want to be reminded of that, thanks.

When WHS came in, I was allocated 4.1
I've been as low as 2.3 and as high as 5.3 over these years.
I've got one more comp next week and I would really like to knock 0.2 off and get back to exactly where I started. :rolleyes:

HI: 12.7

Lowest of 8 counters: 10.0
Highest of 8 counters: 14.7

Highest of 20: 22.6 (that was an awful day - at my home course as well)

My scores tend to be fairly consistently around 14 score differential at the moment but with many different ways of getting there - recent rounds its pretty much bogey golf with smattering of pars but earlier in the year i was getting 2 or 3 birdies a round mixed with 4 or 5 triples etc.

My handicap has increased by 2.6 this year and feels like it's plateauing a bit now thankfully.

HI = 13.6
Top 8 range, 12.2 to 15 = 2.8
Worst in the 20 = 27.7 (I also have a 27.6 and a 25.1!)

I have 5 away scores in the 20 and two of those are my worst scores.

The scoring is incredibly inconsistent, but the HI remains fairly stable.

The pattern of scores numbered 9, 10, 11, 12 is repeated over the next scores 13, 14, 15, 16 with all four scores being slightly lower than the previous four scores.

Two consecutive good scores are followed by an absolute shocker on two occasions. No such thing as a period of being "on form" for me then. Isn't golf fun?

My worst score of all is in the middle of my last 5 scores over which my HI has come down from 4.4 to 4.3.

My current index is 9.9, with my lowest counting differential being a 6.8 and my highest counting being 11.3.

Difference between best and worst of my 8 counting rounds - 4.5 (11.3 - 6.8)
Difference between best and worst of my last 20 (all rounds considered) - 8.8 (15.6 - 6.8)

I think my 20 scores are pretty representative of where I am right now. We dont have Winter qualifiers. Last Winter I was 9.1. With one half decent score I may get close to that again this Winter, but I think 9.9 is closer to my current ability.

Being reminded yet again so kindly by @Bratty (amongst many others) about my Mexican heritage after H4H - which got me thinking. What does the differential spread look like in your last 20?

My current index is 7.6, with my lowest counting differential being a 4.8 (dropping off round after next) and my highest counting being 9.7. As the 4.8 drops of that will be replaced by a 10.5... (well, not necessarily, but currently that is the next in line) :confused:

Difference between best and worst of my 8 counting rounds - 4.9 (4.8 - 9.7)
Difference between best and worst of my last 20 (all rounds considered) - 15.1 (4.8 - 19.9)

How does you scoring fluctuate?
My index is 14.5

Lowest of my 8 is 12.4
Highest is 16.2

3.8 difference

Best and worst of last 20 is 12.4 and 22.7

10.3 difference

Due to a recent run of good form my current index is 1.4.
Lowest counting: -1.7
Highest counting: 3.0

Lowest non counter: 3.4
Highest non counter: 12.7. This was the 1st round of the club champs and was blowing an absolute hooley for the afternoon starters. Greens were running at 10. something and we’re a nightmare to putt on. As the ball got to the hole it was blown off line. Consequently I wrapped my clogs in after about 10 holes. Missed the cut for the first time ever in 20+ years.
