    Were you playing for a house and land package?

    I can go up 3 just the same as it does now.

    The soft cap will hardly impact you being a low marker. When was the last time you were more than 3 strokes above your anchor?

    You’d think you guys were all from FNQ.

    Didn't play today, but everyone at my course had 4 strokes added to their handicaps. There were 2 x 62 nett scores, haven't seen a 62 in the 8 years I have been playing there.. 🤔

    Have decided to take a watch and see attitude. If I get stuck on 6 because of an old anchor I will apply for a review on medical grounds like an old boy I played with a few weeks ago , they gave him 10 shots back

    It has the same effect on their after round handicap as a 66 used to

    I’m almost soft capping. That’s golf’s version of prairie dogging.

    Because to go out the good scores have to physically drop out of your 20 so that takes time- sometimes 10-12 rounds. To go in you only need to post good rounds so 3-4 good rounds will have you coming in.

    What was PCC for the day? I assume it rated 1 harder than expected.

    After your first round you'll have a new low point. So you'll be able to go up more IF you're not lower than your previous low point

    Wouldn’t the one less shot just be due to a slope adjustment?
