HANDICAPS
Association members must have a USGA handicap maintained at The Captains; the handicap season starts April 1, 2013.

The USGA Handicap System enables golfers of differing abilities to compete against each other on an equitable basis.  Players should try their best on every hole in every round & and post their scores! 
      Remember, you only play to your handicap 25% of the time!

POST ALL SCORES: The handicap formula selects your 10 BEST ROUNDS
out of the last 20; a few bad rounds have little impact on your handicap. 

SNOWBIRDS - POST WINTER SCORES: When you return to The Captains, you must post all scores* made in locations where the handicap season
is active. If you are using the same GHIN number down south as you use
at The Captains, the scores will carry over.
     *You only need to post the last 20 scores.
 
PARTIAL ROUNDS: If you complete 13 or more holes, post an 18-hole
score. If you complete at least 7 holes, post a 9-hole score. For the holes
you don't complete, post PAR + any HANDICAP STROKES you would've
received on those holes.

WHAT IF I PICK UP AND DON'T COMPLETE A HOLE? : If you're out of a
hole and pick up (or concede the hole in match play), post the score you most lik
ely would've made, not to exceed your Equitable Stroke Control
maximum.

EQUITABLE STROKE CONTROL is FOR HANDICAP PURPOSES ONLY. It's
the maximum score you can take on a hole and is based on your course
handicap (not your
index). It can change depending on your handicap and the course you are playing.
