TALLY SCORES 2.Tally the scores for a round. This is where you record the golfers putts and scores for a round. You also tell PC-GOLF whether a round is for handicapping, performance or just for practice. You see gross scores, the adjusted gross score, putts and strokes displayed here. To tally scores you need the players scorecard for the round. Of course, the player must already be in the players roster and the player must have been assigned a home course. Tallying putts and scores means adding putts and gross scores you have made on each hole at your home course to the players data bank. Keeping track of a player's putts and scores for a sizable number of rounds is an important feature of PC-GOLF. The players data bank will hold a player's scores and putts for several hundred rounds. The number of rounds to be added or kept in the player's data bank is up to you. You are the best judge of when to erase scores and putts from the data bank and make a fresh start. PC-GOLF gives you control over the contents of the player's data bank. It is up to you whether or not to include the gross scores from any round in the player's data bank. The player's data bank is used to prepare the hole-by-hole performance you see in the player's score sheets. After you ENTER the players gross scores, PC-GOLF computes the adjusted gross scores under the USGA equitable stroke control rule. HANDICAP LIMITATION ON HOLE SCORE Plus or scratch-Limit of one over par on any hole. 1 through 18 -Limit of two over par on number of holes equal to handicap. Limit of one over par on balance of holes. 19 through 36 -Limit or three over par on as many holes as the handicap exceeds 18 strokes. Limit of two over par on balance of holes. 37 through 40 -For women golfers only. Limit of four over par on as many holes as the handicap exceeds 36 strokes. Limit of three over par on balance of holes. USGA note: The adjusted gross score shall be returned for handicap purposes every time a player completes an 18-hole round, no matter where it is played. You can ENTER a player's gross scores for any course which is in the golf course list, whether or not it is the players home course. In the TALLY display you will see a comparison of the player's gross score, the adjusted gross score and par for each hole. The players handicap is calculated using USGA rules. It is determined by taking the average of the lowest 10 of the last 20 differentials, multiplying by 96 percent and rounding off to the the nearest whole number. If less than 20 scores have been tallied, the rules are: For players with less than 5 scores there is no USGA handicap. However, to accommodate players during the first four rounds, the lowest of the four differentials is used to determine the players handicap. For 5 to 19 differentials the rules are: For 5, 6 or 7 rounds use the lowest 1, 2 or 3 differentials respectively. For 8 or 9 rounds use the lowest 4; for 10 or 11, use the lowest 5; for 12 or 13, use the lowest 6; for 14 or 15, use the lowest 7; for 16 or 17, use the lowest 8; and for 18 or 19 rounds use the lowest 9 differentials. Any handicap which was determined from less than the last twenty differentials is given a suffix of T, e.g. 12T. A handicap differential is the difference between a player's adjusted gross score and the course rating of the course where the score was made. This definition highlights the importance of the course rating in the handicapping system. PC-GOLF's handicap calculations produce results identical to those of any golf club or association which computes and maintains handicaps in accordance with the USGA Handicap System. PC-GOLF does not, however, purport to establish a handicap authorized, sponsored or approved by the USGA. There are times when, for perfectly legiti- mate reasons, you do not want to include a round in the handicap calculations. PC-GOLF gives you that option. Putting is half the game. You can ENTER a player's putting scores for any course which is in the golf course list, whether or not it is the players home course. In the TALLY display you will see a comparison of the player's putts, gross scores, strokes and par for each hole. Putting scores which are ENTERed for rounds at a player's home course will be saved in the players data bank. The players data bank is used to prepare the home course hole-by-hole performance you will see in the players score sheets. The limits for putts and scores are 1 through 4 and 1 through 9, respectively. A "zero putt", which results from a "chip in",should be entered as a 2 putt. This maintains the net effect of not degrading or inflating a player's putting performance with respect to par. Sample data is provided to help you get familiar with the way PC-GOLF works.
