SOGAGG,
Thanks to Shaft, I looked into The Grint App. It gave me some problems on
the iphone, but it works quite well on my PC. I loaded the app, which is free
for handicap index management (they call it "handicap."). It works well,
including adjusting for equitable stroke control based on your "handicap."
I think it would be best if anyone who does not maintain a handicap index
through SCGA/GHIN uses Grint to post their scores and maintain a handicap index
for free. This would eliminate any need for one of us to keep updates going.
Warm Regards,
Charlie Hopkins

Charlie/Rules - thanks for sharing the information on calculating handicaps. I
have been keeping my scores on a free online service for keeping scores and
calculating indexes. It is called "the Grint". I will plug the additional
scores I have in your excel file and see if the handicap index calculated
matches with what I currently have with Grint. Let you know if I have a
problem. For what it is worth, my handicap index is calculated at around 18
right now with Grint.
Sure had a lot of fun last week, back to work today.

Subject: [sogagg] SOGAGG Handicap Index Calculations
SOGAGG,
The following is from "Rules," so it is dry and complex. Such is life
sometimes.
I have attached a couple of files. The .docx file defines handicap index,
course rating, and slope rating. The .xlsx file provides my proposed
assignment of handicap indexes for SOGAGG players.
What and why. We need an equitable method for determining course handicaps for
members competing during our events. If everyone had a USGA / GHIN / SCGA
handicap index, we could just use that. Unfortunately, not everyone does. So,
I've used the scores we made during the latest Las Vegas trip to calculate
indexes for those that played. I used the scores recorded, adjusted these
using equitable stroke control, used the USGA method for calculating handicap
indexes using those scores, and took the lower of that index or an established
SCGA index for those that have them. I listed that number under "SOGAGG INDEX."
For those members who don't play enough golf elsewhere to justify maintaining
an SCGA (e.g.) index, I would be pleased to maintain the current process. Just
send me any scorecards (preferably via email) from games that you play, whether
as part of SOGAGG or elsewhere. Past outings are fine.
Survey Monkey:
A. OK.
B. No way in hell!
