Gold Tees - Friday, December 18, 2009

Gold Tees - Friday, December 18, 2009

During the board meeting of Dec. 17, it was unanimously decided to allow anybody to play from the gold tees, regardless of handicap, age or any other restriction. It was felt that we would like our members to enjoy golf by choosing the tee best for them.

To elect to play from the gold tees, either contact Ed Foy (623-556-0355) or e-mail yellow_tees@cox.net. Once you elect to play gold tees, and it is entered into our handicap system, you will play the gold tees each week in the tournament season.

Your TOURNAMENT handicap will change, not your index.

Per USGA handicapping guidelines there are two adjustments to your TOURNAMENT handicap. The first is by calculating the tournament handicap based on the gold tee’s slope and rating. The second adjustment takes the difference in Course Ratings from the different tees, rounds them to get to a whole adjustment number.

The USGA gives the option of raising the white tee guy’s or lowering the gold tee guy's COURSE handicap to get to an equitable handicap for all. Since there are fewer guys using the gold, we decided to lower the gold tee guys TOURNAMENT handicap.

The second adjustment LOWERING gold tee guys handicap would be:
GFS - 2 (Rating 68.9 White less 66.7 Gold = 2.2 rounded to 2)
GFN -  3 (69.0 less 66.4 = 2.6)
DS -   2 (69.1 less 66.7 = 2.4)
CIM -  2   (69.2 less 67.3 = 1.9)
