IMPORTANT: After you have established a custom handicap, you must adjust your scorecards using the “Equitable Stroke Control” before completing this form. All Forms received after the 25th of the month WILL NOT be computed until the following month.

The procedure is simpler and independent of par and still accomplishes the purpose of ESC, which is to eliminate unrealistically high hole scores. It sets a maximum score that a player can post on any hole depending on the player’s Course Handicap.

The following table will be used to set the maximum score for posting:

Courses Handicap Maximum Score Posted on Any Hole 9 or Less Double Bogey 10 through 19 7 20 through 29 8 30 through 39 9 40 and Above 10

SCORECARDS OR COPIES SHOULD BE KEEP FOR AT LEAST SIX (6) MONTHS IN THE EVENT THAT BACKUP IS NEEDED TO ATTEST YOUR CUSTOM HANDICAP.

An I.D. number will be assigned after your first scores are recorded. A MINIMUM of five (5) scores is needed to compute your first custom handicap.

Please complete the Handicapper Form below for easy submission or if you prefer, you can print out, complete and fax to The Golfe at (301) 294-6442.
