1 Day for our weekly events and 5 days for our Major/Multi-day events
3 days
Seven days in advance of the first round of the event.
Course handicaps will be translated on the day before the event and remain the same for the duration of the event if a multi day event. However, we have a season long 4 Ball, and handicaps will be updated on the day each match is played
We haven’t had to do this yet, but we are planning on doing it about 4 days prior to the start of the event. This is normally when we send out Flight details to members.
We will also not be updating handicaps between rounds of a multi-round event.
We intend to use handicaps from 2 days prior to our events. Thursday’s handicaps for a Saturday event, Friday’s handicaps for a Sunday event. Other Member-Guest events will most likely be 7-10 days in advance.
For our larger member only events we’ll be utilizing handicaps as of 3 days prior. For weekly events we’ll be utilizing day of play handicaps. For our member guest events we’ll be utilizing one week out handicaps.
2 days
2 days in advance for the majority of club events and for the Invitational 10 days.
