To determine a rough handicap, take your last ten scores (if you don't have 10 scores, don't worry - just try to remember as many scores that you have shot in the past year or so. With each round of golf subtract whatever is par at that course from your score (example you shot 92, par is 72 92-72=20. Take the difference between your score and par and add them all up, then divide by how many rounds you played (example: 20, 15, 20, 25: 20+15+20+25=80 (80/4 =20). Now take this average and subtract 20% from it and you'll have a rough handicap: ex. 20 x.2=4....20-4=16. If you had shot those four score you would be a 16 handicap. Remember this is just a rough manner is which to calculate it, join a golf club and start posting, then you can see what you really are, you might be pleasantly surprised
