    I'm out to 11.5 now, after being 6.1 within the last 20 rounds, but my anchor is based on 8.4. I'm now in the soft cap zone. The only time that I have played to a handicap in my golflink record was at the Vic Champs. How convenient....

    Back to 11.3, after my McLeod round from a week and a half ago finally got processed. The slope there is 132, so my 14 over became a flag. A couple of 2017 and one 2018 score to come off next, but no flags to drop off for a while, which puts a pause on the farming.

    Dropped a flag yesterday but it was one of the higher ones so only a 0.1 gain.
    2 rounds time the second lowest comes off so should see a better gain worthy of how bad the short game is now.
    Currently only have 2 single figure flags left in the 20.

    Is Santa bringing you a new John Deere too?

    Golf is, in part, a game; but only in part. It is also in part a religion, a fever, a vice, a mirage, a frenzy, a fear, an abscess, a joy, a thrill, a pest, a disease, an uplift, a brooding, a melancholy, a dream of yesterday and a hope for tomorrow. - New York Tribune, 1916.

    My first comp game tomorrow since a year ago... My current handicap is at 10.1. I have a feeling I'll be joining this society of fine men.

    I found a new trick for handicap maintenance today. I scored a 39, but signed for a 38, and got handicapped for a 38.

    Shouldn’t that be DQ?

    The gross score was marked as correct, and I think the club should have picked up on this, as it is their responsibility to record the stableford score (Rule 21.1b). If it was a club where cards were scanned, it would have got picked up, but at a country club with a physical card handed in, it got missed.

    Andy has nailed it, but you can also only be disqualified for signing for a score HIGHER than your actual score.

    I put that in my initial reply, before doing the rules research and sticking to my scenario. Basically the committee is meant to cover for our potential stupidity of marking stableford wrong or not being able to add up holes correctly.

    And to clarify further, that only applies to the gross score. Giving ones self a few extra stablefords is no penalty

    To quote a recent Seppo tweet

    “No offense to good golfers, but I generally prefer to play with bad golfers because they have more fun and less requirements for what makes their round fun. Good people, good conversation, laughs, some booze, a day in nature. “
