Handicap System Change

There is a new handicap system that has been adopted by Canada and the US, called the World Handicap System. The software system that MSGA uses has been upgraded to the new system.

The main thing I want to communicate ahead of time to the members is that EVERYONE will see their handicaps GO Down, and I did not want that to be a shock at the start the season when you get your score cards at the first round.

One of our members, Dave Morrison, is keenly interested in handicapping, and he has put together the attachment where he tries to explain the new system.

Please pass this on to your groups, so that they have plenty of time to study this over the remaining winter and be prepared for golf season.

Thanks.

Bruce

Scores and handicaps

MSGA

Beginning January 1, 2020 golf handicaps worldwide have been revised under the World Handicapping System (WHS). MSGA handicaps have been revised to follow the principle element of the new WHS.

Compared to your 2019 MSGA handicap your 2020 MSGA handicap will be lower because of two changes. The first change is to count fewer best rounds out of the previous twenty (8 instead of 10). This will lower the average index calculation somewhat, will vary by individual but is unlikely to have a major impact. The second change introduces course rating and par for the course you are playing to your course handicap value calculated under the 2019 method. The difference between par and the course rating will be subtracted from the 2019 method value. Because all of the courses we play ( white tee and one forward tee boxes ) have course ratings less than par, there is always a deduction from the 2019 calculated value. The lower the course rating, the greater the handicap reduction. It will vary by course but the handicap reduction for most white tees will be about two strokes and for forward tees about five strokes.

Because everyone is affected in your tee box group by the same amount it just means everyone’s net score is higher by the same amount. However, if there is a need to compare net scores between tee box groups these scores are now properly comparable whereas before they were not because course rating differences were not factored into the hand
