Our Handicap System

Our handicap system was designed to be fair and current. These were updated overtime as we learned new things on how players played and with statistics from over thousands of combined rounds to come up with with these numbers.

It is based on your last 10 rounds of official play, meaning you have to join in the weekly tournament.
Score cannot be more than 100. If you shoot 101, 100 will be entered as the score for handicap while 101 will be used to calculate weekly results.
If your net score is 64.9 and lower, your score will be entered 5 times
If your net score is 65 - 67.9, your score will be entered 4 times
If your net score is 68 - 69.9, your score will be entered 3 times
If your net score is 70 - 71.9, your score will be entered 2 times
If your net score is 72 and higher, your score will be entered 1 time
Your score cannot be more than 10 strokes over your handicap. For example: If your handicap is 12 or ( 84 ) and you shoot 98 that is 14 strokes higher then your handicap. Your entered score will be 94 for the handicap but 98 will be used to calculate results.

If you have further questions, please talk to your club leader about it. But this system is pretty fair and is working out nicely. If you don't play then your handicap will stay the same for better or worse.

Sticky Rice Cup points total are based on your top 10 points earned for the year. Let's say you had 400 points last week and earned 30 points this week, your total may not be 430 because if your 10th highest point was 23, it will be replaced with 30 and you only gained 7 points and your new total will be 407.
