    I really like it adjusting so that scores can be directly compared against each other – doesn’t make sense to me to have a handicapping system and then have it not able to be properly directly compared.

    It will feel like a blow having my daily come out several shots but as I often play particularly with blokes (eg in the OOMs) it is nice to be able to have a direct comparison. Might give the women more of a fighting chance in the special events we play which have mixed v womens v mens teams.

    15.2 to 15.9

    … ? …

    15.2/0.93 so it should be 16.3

    8.2 to 8.2. Everyone else appears to have gone out one to two shots. I don’t understand it.

    You all seem to be comparing your before & after GA Index. The only change there was the scrubbing of the 7% discount.
    So they all went out by 7%, or 1 in 14. That was a Golf Aust peculiarity not used anywhere else in the world. But they liked it so much that they brought it into the playing handicap. That’s probably not done anywhere else in the world either.

    What I found interesting was that the 7% was added in to the ‘new handicap’ on the last round recorded before the golflink shutdown. My anchor was then reset (from 14.5 to 16.5) on my last round (4 days later).

    I don’t understand how it could takes 3 days to add 7% to every GA Index. It’s just a simple database update that takes a few seconds.

    People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.
    No championships worth mentioning in recent years.

    I’m not sure what you’re trying to tell us.

    The 7% adjustment is WHY we are looking at our GA, but like up, mine did not adjust out by that 7%

    Can you explain why that is?

    The line that first showed the ‘no 7% off’ previously held a different figure calculated under the old system. It may be a flagged round or you may have pushed a flag off the bottom with that round. Then they went through and only changed the ‘new handicap’ on that line to not have 7% deducted.

    8.2 to 8.2. Everyone else appears to have gone out one to two shots. I don’t understand it.

    You’re looking at the wrong line.
    With a ‘cap of 8 you would have gone out by .5 or .6
    Unless something else happened on that line which equated to an equal and opposite reaction which would have reduced your ‘cap.

    On the 26/01/20 I had 28 points in a flagged round and went from 7.5 to 8.3. On the 27/01/20 I had 33 points in an unflagged round and went from 8.3 to 8.2 which remained unchanged in the swap to WHS. So are you suggesting the adjustment was made on the 27th?

    My last round under the old system was on Sunday 26th. I played on Monday 27th but that didn’t get uploaded to golflink before the shutdown. So, in my case the entry on the 26th was the one that got adjusted up by 7%.

    Yours was probably the same. Certainly looks like it from those figures.
