Handicap Calculation | St. Peter Golf League

Handicap Calculation

  • Handicaps are figure using your last 8 rounds (they can carry over year to year).
  • A score/differential is calculated based on the slop and rating of the course.
  • Your four highest scores/differentials are thrown out.
  • The four lowest scores/differentials are added together and then divided by 4 to give your weeks handicap.

Example:

  • 7.6 + 4.6 + 5.0 + 5.5 = 22.7
  • 22.7/4 = 5.6 (which is rounded up to a 6)
