R & H #21-3 Handicaps and Score Posting

Handicaps and Score Posting 


We all now rely on the World Handicap System (WHS) and the USGA Rules of Handicapping when playing golf. The WHS is what allows us to have fun, competitive and fair competition between golfers of different abilities. Whether it’s a trash talking event with your buddies or a Club event where you are playing the field, the handicap system provides a framework that lets us all compete on equal footing. Now that the golf season is in full swing here at Fawn Lake, we want to remind the Membership to post all scores of play with other individuals or groups. 

If you play in a club event, the Pro Shop will post for you. Otherwise, you are responsible for posting your own scores. The USGA Handicap Manual states you should post your score by the end of the day. 

 We have a couple scenarios that may cause some confusion:

 1.    Away Rounds - If you play another course other than Fawn Lake, you are still        

            required to post your scores. All courses are in the USGA GHIN app.

 2.    Match Play - You are required to post all scores from match play, even if 

do not complete all 18 holes. The Handicap Manual states:

 If 14 or more holes are played, the player must post an 18-hole score. If 7 to  13 holes are played, the player must post a nine-hole score. In either case, scores for holes not played must be recorded as par plus any handicap strokes that the player is entitled to receive on the holes that are not played.

 If you wake up one morning and realize you forgot to post a previous round, you can still go back and post that score. Just be sure to set the correct date the round was played.

 In closing, the WHS works well and allows us to all be competitive across the board, but only if we are all attempting to make the best score possible at each hole and submit all acceptable scores.

As always, if you have any questions concerning this post or any other handicap question, please feel free to reach out to your Rules and Handicap Committee 

(John Allison, Steve Pendry, or Becki Davis) at rulesandhandicap@fawnlakecc.com.
