Supports 9 hole handicaps or 18 hole handicaps. Just enter par/rating/slope at 9 holes for a 9 hole handicap.
Supports teams. Instead of players just enter team names and set par on the course at Par for 9 or Par for 18 * number of members on the team. You end up with a team handicap.
This system is intended for use by leagues or by small groups wanting to track scores for rounds played together. This allows for every player to have an equal chance of winning since the handicaps are true for a course and under the same conditions.
This is not a game analyzer, tracking putts per round, fairways hit or GIR.
You set the handicap rules
- Type of handicap Standard or USGA.
- How many rounds are reviewed for calculation?
- How many rounds are included in the calculaiton?
- You can have the best 2 rounds removed from the calculation.
- What percentage of strokes to give 95% to 50%.
- Sample Standard
  John has played 12 rounds of golf over the last 4 months. You have decided this goup will review the last 10 rounds played. Out of those 10 rounds, you accept the lowest 6 scores to calculate the handicap. You have elected to use 85% as your percentage of strokes to use.
  John has shot: 90, 85, 89, 86, 78, 85, 90, 92, 88, 80. The lowest 6 scores are used: 78, 80, 85, 85, 86, 88 for a total of 502. Assuming your course plays to 72, the formalula is
  ((Total Score - Par) / Rounds Used) * .96%
  ((502 - 432) / 6) * .96
  Total Score = 502
  Par = 432
  Total Strokes over par = 70
  Average stroker per round = 11.66
  Handicap = 11.19
- Same Sample USGA
  John has played 12 rounds of golf over the last 4 months. You have decided this goup will review the last 10 rounds played. Out of those 10 rounds, you accept the lowest 6 scores to calculate the handicap. You have elected to use 85% as your percentage of strokes to use. Course Rating is 73.9, course slope is 130.
  John has shot: 90, 85, 89, 86, 78, 85, 90, 92, 88, 80. The lowest 6 scores are used: 78, 80, 85, 85, 86, 88 for a total of 502. For each score you use (Score - 73.0) * 113 / 130
  
  For John's 6 scores you get these 6 Handicap Differentials 3.56, 5.30, 9.65, 9.65, 10.51, 12.26
  Add the differentials = 50.93
  Divide by 6 rounds = 8.49
  Multiple by percentage of stokes to use say .96 (USGA Standard) = 8.15
Scores are kept online for 1 year.
Each group is provided with 1 security code for entering course setup, players and scores. Reviewing screens are open for all.

Our Favorite Saturday Group Game

We create 2 and 3 man teams each week based upon how many show up.
4 players, 2 player teams
5 players, 1 2 player team, 1 3 player team
6 players, 2 3 player teams
7 players, 2 2 player teams, 1 3 player team
8 players, 4 2 player teams
For weeks with 3 player teams going against 2 player teams, each player on the 2 player team gets 2 extra strokes.
We throw all the balls up each week to determine teams, balls closest together play together.
Each player plays his ball out or till double bogie.
We allow a maximum of an 18 stroke handicap
Lowest team scores wins.
We play for $1 for low score each nine, $1 total score and $.25 for each greenie, $4 per round total.
Your handicap is based upon only scores played within this group. No other outside scores allowed.
This system has been used for over 20 years and overtime the money is a wash. The handicaps do keep the teams close each week. Rarely does 1 team ever win by more than 1 stroke per nine.
