Take your score and subtract the course rating.
Take the result and multiply by 113. Take the result and divide by the course slope rating. The result is called a handicap differential. Take the average of the best 10 of your last 20 differentials and multiply by .96. That's your handicap index. |

I've actually always wondered what the calculation was... But...I still think going click-click and then typing 83 and pressing enter is a bit easier on me drunken brain. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] So join the damn group already...it's more for fun anyway and to see what you 2+2 buddies (or not so buddies) are hitting... Today was a bad day. I found a ProV1 and hit it for an entire round...and liked it...too much. Time to get my swing speed tested again so that I can try and justify to myself a need to buy these stupid $5/per balls.

They only have 8 courses in Chicago, though. Guess I'll have to manually enter all of the courses I play. BTW, my last round was a 4.3 differential. I think that's my best ever.

You might hit them farther with a low swing speed than a cheaper harder ball, because the higher spin will help the ball stay in the air longer. |

[/ QUOTE ] Gotta admit, I'm warming up to them. Shots I play all week that would typically roll off for me are sticking today. I'd like to think it was my swing that stuck them, but... ...I know better. Glad you joined...Looks like we are up to 6! But I know there are more golfers here then that so get off your collective asses and join everyone! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

Yeah....I'm pissed.
I'm loving these damn $4/ball balls. Stupid stupid stupid ball. Why does it have to go so damn straight and stop when I tell it to? I think the only thing I am more pissed about is my playing partner today, who on the 15th tee, turned to me and said... "Hey, aren't you even on the back?" Yes dude...I was even on the back...until you said something and I proceeded to go double bogey, bogey, double bogey. Hope he enjoys limping home [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] (j/k) (maybe) |

$4/ball [/ QUOTE ] You can get AAA quality used Pro V1's on ebay for as little as $1.50 each. Very good condition. I buy them by the hundreds (split with friends) and have yet to be disappointed. |

I haven't lost a ball in three rounds, so these should last forever. |
