Handicapping |
|
| |
The USGA Handicap System was established to make the game of golf more enjoyable by enabling players with differing abilities to compete on a more equitable basis. The purpose of the Handicap system is to measure a golfer's potential ability to play, rather than how he or she is currently playing. In order to obtain a USGA Handicap Index, a golfer must belong to a Golf Club.
The Golf Handicap and Information Network is a computation system established by the USGA and provided to state and regional golf associations. The Florida State Golf Association administers the GHIN system for the USGA. The FLGPA is a Club that is officially sanctioned by the Florida State Golf Association. As such the FLGPA will at all times keep records and establish handicaps for its Members, in accordance with the guidelines established by the USGA. Members who do not have a USGA Handicap will be assigned one according to the GHIN system.
It is important to note that the golf handicap system has always relied on the integrity of the individual golfer. Therefore, it is each Member's responsibility to record his or her individual scores accurately and promptly or contact the FLGPA to record your scores and maintain your current handicap.
