Re: Handicapping Rule Change
Golfer's games are either moving towards or away from perfection so the constant change, up or down, in factors, reflects that natural ebb and flow. I just don't understand how this can be perceived as a problem necessitating a change to the system.
The biggest and most obvious problem is players not posting their scores and the few that post erroneous scores. With a booking system in place it is easy to find out the number of games any individual member plays and that can be compared to the number of games posted in the Golf Canada system, to establish a posting rate. Those who play in handicap events and who are also not entering scores, may have their factor, modified, withdrawn or penalty scores posted for them by the handicap Committee.
