How to adjust your score for handicap purposes
Example 1:
Luke Mayo – Handicap 5
- Actual number of shots (91) played does not always equal your score for handicap purposes (82).
- In the below example Luke Mayo has a 5 handicap and therefore can have an unlimited number of “double bogey / two over” scores on the card (in red) . So if Luke scores more than 2 over on a hole he must adjust it to 2 over for handicap purposes. This applies to players with a handicap up to 18. These can be taken on any hole regardless of whether he strokes on the hole . Golf is a game of honour. Scores will always be based on trust and the golfer playing by the rules.

Example 2:
Brent Latter – Handicap 19
- Actual number of shots (102) played does not always equal your score for handicap purposes (95).
- In the below example Brent has a 19 handicap and therefore can have an unlimited number of “triple bogey / three over” scores on the card (in red) . So if Luke scores more than 3 over on a hole he must adjust it to 3 over for handicap purposes. This applies to players with a handicap of 19 or more. These can be taken on any hole regardless of whether he strokes or double strokes on the hole . Golf is a game of honour. Scores will always be based on trust and the golfer playing by the rules.
