Handicap calculation explanation
Category 1 (5 or less) handicap reduced by 0.1 x number of shots better than std scratch
Category 2 (6 to 12) handicap reduced by 0.2 x number of shots better than std scratch
Category 3 (13 to 20) handicap reduced by 0.3 x number of shots better than std scratch
Category 4 (21 to 28) handicap reduced by 0.4 x number of shots better than std scratch
The winner of an event will be cut a minimum of one full shot, no matter how many points are scored
The standard scratch will be set at one point less than the person in fifth (fourth if less than 30 attendees, third if less than 20 attendees) scored, meaning only the top five (four/three) and ties will  have a handicap cut (i.e. if you win a prize, your handicap will be cut). There will be a ‘buffer zone’ where those equal to the standard scratch remain unchanged, with all other handicaps increasing by either 0.1 or 0.2, depending on the day.
