Golf Handicap Systems

For amateur competition play, golfers normally receive a golf handicap based on the last ten scores they received adjusted for the difficulty of the courses, in other words, the USGA Handicapping System.

The Callaway System

The Callaway system is a worst holes system that works according to a chart. The golfer plays one round and compares score to the chart. If his score is 70 or above, he will receive a deduction based on the worst score in the round and/ or a set adjustment.

Depending on how many strokes he made, a player may be given a golf handicap of half the number of strokes on his worst hole to the total of the six worst holes plus the adjustment of -2 to +2 to a maximum of 50 strokes. The chart makes this much simpler than it sounds and since this system is based on a game that all players played in the same weather conditions, it works out very fairly.
