ACCESS AZGolf FAQ
- Does this membership include a USGA Handicap Index?
- NO. The USGA is very specific about maintaining a USGA Handicap Index. In order to maintain the integrity of the USGA system, golfers MUST be a member of a club and subject themselves to peer review. A club is a group of at least ten individuals who play golf together.
- What is a certified scoring average?
- It is an adjusted scoring average, weighted toward more recent scores and current playing trends. A golfer's score is adjusted for the par and length of the golf course played and reflects the player's ability to make par on a given hole compared to other players of similar ability.
- What is the difference between a certified scoring average and a USGA handicap?
- A certified scoring average doesn't have anything to do with a USGA Handicap Index. USGA Handicap is a peer-reviewed estimate of potential, unrelated to an adjusted scoring average. A certified scoring average is an estimate of current ability, not potential. It is not subject to any of the rules and regulations set forth by the USGA and will not allow you to enter events that require a USGA Handicap.
- How is a certified scoring average calculated?
- Each score is adjusted for yardage and par against an overall average for courses. Then, the scores played are evaluated on a historical basis to predict more accurately your next score.
- Can I predict my next most likely score?
- Yes, the Golfers IQ can look at your current scoring average and predict what your next score is likely to be. Just click on "Predict My Score", enter either the course and tees, or the yardage and par of the golf course you are going to play. The program will predict your score within a few strokes. Now you can check the predicted score of your group before you negotiate the strokes and the wager.
- How do I post a score?
- Scores can only be posted on the AGA's website.
