Recommended Posts

So a question for any handicapping experts here.

Running an event where players get 80% of their handicap.   

20 Handicap gets 16 strokes

10 Handicap gets 8 strokes

5 Handicap gets 4 strokes

0 handicap gets  ___  strokes

 

Please fill in that blank for me!  And how and where it can be officially found.

I am not a specialist, but I am curious, it seems to be a gray area Rob, well at least for me.

I found very little information when looking too.

https://oga.org/sites/default/files/Guide to Plus Handicaps.pdf

In ideal math 80% of 0 is 0, but that is not the reality of golf.

Personally, I think a 0 would get 0 strokes, but again, just personal opinion and a +5 handicap would get -1, but this is opinionated, not factual information.

Are you basing this off their handicap or the course handicap. I’m guessing if they are scratch handicap they may be slightly higher on the course handicap so take 80% if that for everyone 

But I believe a zero stays at a zero

similar to what @xOldBenKenobiXfound but it talks about applying the percentages you are referring to.    The blank in your list would be a 0.
