Exceptional Score Recognition: Players who play better than the low net differential table below will need to have their Playing Handicap adjusted prior to each match. This is performed by the PLAYER'S CAPTAIN in the Handicap Analysis portion of the Golf Genius Software. It is the Captain and Player’s responsibility to let an opposing team know that they are on the "Exceptional Score Recognition List".  As of the 2023 Season, any exceptional score reduction will apply for 12 months from the date of the score.

 

Net Differential Range

*If the player being adjusted is the low ball in the group, add the appropriate amount of strokes to each of the other three players.

 

Multiple offenses will be added together. Reductions apply to any division a player competes in, even if the reduction was earned in a different division.

 

After reviewing players scoring records. If the CGA determines the player has not followed the Rules of Handicapping, the CGA will adjust any previous match scores from that player to a DQ. The full team match results will be updated.

 

 

Net Scoring Differential Formula: (113/slope) x (adjusted gross score - course rating - PCC adjustments) - (Low H.I.)

 

Player A – Shoots an adjusted gross score of 74 with an 8.0 Low H.I., Slope 129, and CR 68.5

(113/129) x (74 adjusted gross score - 68.5 – 0 PPC adjustment) – (8)

Net Scoring Differential = -3.2

This Player did not make the List!

 

 

Player B – Shoots an adjusted gross score of 73 with an 8.8 Low H.I., Slope 129, and CR 68.5

(113/126) x (83 adjusted gross score - 68.8 – 0 PCC adjustment) – (18.7 LHI)

Net Scoring Differential = -6.0

This Player did make the List!!!!

 

The CGA will contact the team captain, their Head Pro, and their Handicap Chair after reviewing this player's GHIN Scoring Record.
