As the 2021 golf season gets underway, the Handicap Committee reminds all players that in order to maintain the integrity of our handicap system, they should post every round played, except when playing alone. Scores should be posted for any format, even when you pick-up without holing out or when you skip holes. This includes playing less than a full 9 or 18 holes. If a player does not hole out, they should assign themselves the score for that hole that they would have most likely have achieved, or, if they skips a hole, their handicapped score for that hole. Guidelines that detail how to post rounds are posted in the golf section of the website. We also remind players that the Handicap Committee monitors the handicap system and has imposed handicap penalties when players fail to post regular play and/or tournament scores. Also new for 2021, all players are required by the USGA to create a digital profile. If you have not yet posted a score in 2021 you will be prompted to set-up your digital profile on your first log-in to your GHIN number. If you have any trouble with the set-up, please contact Jeff Shelton, PGADirector of Administration & Play at jeff.shelton@ancc.org.
