We will use handicaps from 2 days before for our normal events and 2 weeks before our Men’s Invitational
we will set hdcps for such events the Monday prior
3 days in advance
We will be using handicaps that are in effect 48 hours prior to the first round of our multi day competitions.
We will use the index established 2 days prior to the event.
Being a Canadian, we are used to the daily update. It has been a part of our handicap system for as long as I can remember. We generally freeze handicaps for major events one week in advance, non-major events, 2 to 3 days in advance. Hope this helps our friend south of the border to establish their protocols.
We are going to maintain the two week rule that we used in the past when the handicaps updates every two weeks.
