Played 2 shots better than my cap today but according to the wonderful DSR I played one shot worse any wonder I'm busting my backside to get lower, I feel like I'm talking to my ex

You don't get me. I'm part of the Union.
Something isn't adding up. You have a 6046m par 73, with SCR 72, which DSR can not be any lower than 71, which means a 38 is treated the same as a "played to cap".
SCR 72 seems fair as 6046m is short for a par 73. To give you an example, Royal Melbourne West is a 6067m (off the blue) Par 72 that has a SCR of 72.
The second part is, for DSR to be 71 it means the field is exceeding expectations, and the course is playing easier than expected.
In summary, there is nothing that appears to be wrong with your courses SCR/DSR. You are experiencing what most club golfers experience in their day to day golfing life. 3 rounds a week at my course, Par is 70, SCR is 69, and generally DSR is 68, no different to you.
I wish I played at a course where DSR was two under every round rather than 2 over. My cap would be reflective of my ability, not just my HomeTrackHeroics ability.
Well I don't know how it works and am not very interested but thanks for the info, it's bloody difficult to just to break even when guys are coming in with 50pts one week and 48 the next or 9up WTF, all I want to do is play to my cap without the pressure of having to have to par with damn course every week, either the DSR system or the new amazing cap system or both are failing and I'm sure I'm not the only one with this complaint, mark
Sounds like DSR is working perfectly, to me.
Mark, the system doesn't expect you to play to your handicap every week. It's just a number.
Use it as preparation to getting a few shots back for the big prize events.
It's just amateur sport. Go out and enjoy yourself.

45 points is beating handicap by one shot every 2 holes. It’s not really surprising somebody will get there off a high handicap.
The higher the handicap, the more likely it’ll happen, especially if there is a large number high handicappers. All you see is the winning score but it’s likely a different bloke each week.
As they take it in turns.
Having played a bit at Anglesea, I'm surprised the slope is that high, which of course gives the high handicap choppers a bit of a boost. Should be more like 123-125 given the 5 par 5's and overall length (and width)
That said, this time of year you will get comp winners having huge scores as conditions are perfect for the C graders, especially on shorter tracks like yours. (52 points won our C grade on Saturday !) Just let the score take car of itself, and in a few months you'll have gone out a shot or two and will be winning the comp with 38 when the C graders, who by then will have come in a couple of shots, cant get anywhere near that score.
Do you play your club comps in grades? If not, your match committee need a boot up the arse....
Most likely the course is playing easier than the rating for the higher caps , happens a lot in summer eg more run or no rough. It can also happen if the course is set up easier , if only one rating it will be for the back plates , if you have long tees then you can be playing 10 / 20 mts forward on lots of holes enabling the choppers to get past the trouble the rating factors in from the plates
Wynnum has a par of 70, scratch rating of 69 and a DSR of 68 most of the time. Can I get a seat at this table of outrage?
