CTGA USGA Self-Handicapping Chart

This Self-Handicapping Chart will help you to equitably handicap yourself.

Find your average scoring round in the "Your Avg Score" column, then declare your starting provisional CTGA handicap from the "Your Provisional HCP" column.

Example: If you determines the average score on the course(s) you plays to be 88, you should identify this ability and self-declare your provisional handicap as a ….. 17 (man) or….. 20 (woman).

Provisional CTGA handicaps are used to set up New Members and CTGA Guests with provisional handicaps for Individual and Team Player Pools, Close-To-Pin and our optional Skins and Deuces competitions.
