Handicap Information
Beginning January 1, 2020, GHIN handicap will use the World Handicap System (WHS).
Under the WHS, equitable score control (ESC) is no longer used. Posting scores in the Greater St. Louis area will begin March 1, 2020.
Here are a few reminders for a good handicap.
1. Post within a week of play
2. Adjust your score to no higher than net double bogey. If you post your score hole by hole, GHIN will automatically adjust the score for you.
3. Handicap will be updated the day after you post your score.
4. Posting errors cannot be corrected through the golf course or internet GHIN. They can only be corrected through SLWGA's Handicap Chairman.
Please email any corrections to Marty Crimmins foetoe@gmail.com. This includes wrong date or score.
Pace of Play Reminder
Speed of play is an issue with all SLWGA events but is especially irritating when the temperature is above 90 degrees as it is in our summers. Unfortunately, this can be life threatening. CLICK HERE to view some courtesy rules that all of us need to observe. Team captains please stress this with your team members.
