    I'm so happy I'm not on my golf club committee anymore so I don't have to deal with most of you or versions thereof...….FFS, its been coming for over a year or more, just do some reading, not much, just a little.

Wednesday's comp, under the old system, had a 47, followed by a 46. Not many will complain if 40 is a chance of winning the comp.The golfing world didn't collapse last time the system changed, and it won't fall apart this time either.
    We play for $10 , some of the old farts on Tuesday are more interested in getting shots back so they can win the side bet , than winning the comp

    Nope, now it's 36 for your daily, as your daily already factors in scr. And old system was +/- dsr, I got mixed up typing that in.

    Edit:
    More accurate version would be:
    Old system +/- scr AND +/- dsr adjustment.
    New system +/- dsr adjustment (now called PCC)

    Knowing the changes and having an opinion on those changes are two wildly different things.

    With a view like that I'm surprised you're still not on the board as chairman

    Sure, but that doesn't give you the right to be completely clueless.

    When are you going to be Captain and get the ship sailing correctly?

    Is why I am on here getting the info I want , seems bottom line is I am off 6 tomorrow, the rest is all opinion ,whinging , encouragement and then some judgemental fluff from a couple of the usual suspects. Ps , I have been club captain twice and on match committee and greens committees , usually get asked to go on at most clubs but I find I get more done by not going on committees

    My god there is some woeful complaining going on here. I feel for the club captains and committee having to field these ridiculous questions. Go out and play golf, or don’t. Don’t rag on the committee members though, they keep the clubs going.

    your post proves my point ,you didn’t read and understand what I said ,Plus there is nothing on the web page about the changes , there has been a mention of up coming changes in the handicap section by golf aus but you have to check your cap to come across it

    One down.

    Under the new system, my daily drops from 10 to 9. I just need WBennett to cancel and the title 'Australia's Worst Single Figure Golfer' is again mine.

    p.s. Who am I kidding? Wbennett won't give up Saturday golf for a bushfire threat.

    So which is it? Nothing on the website about the changes or a dirty great big notice on the handicap look up page?

    There seems to be a real dilemma between a vanity handicap and an entitlement to 40 points

    Mine hasn’t changed , but since I have been playing the majority of my golf on greens instead of blacks it has been going out anyway
    At the end of the day I play the game for fun and time with friends ,it’s frustrating when I don’t score well but not the end of the world
    The new system won’t stop me playing put it that way

    Does the new system still treat you as a cheat/ tanker if you cannot constantly make 30 points?
    Once you go yellow, you will never go back

    Yes because it won't allow your handicap to go up as the equation should allow. You'll be worse for longer. Join my club of that!
