Wondering what everyone thinks about the new handicap system.WHS. in my opinion can’t see myself and my wife ever entering a mixed comp again.as we are both high handicap golfers 21.6 myself and 30.8 my wife.our course rating is 138/145.so even on our home course we are giving away shots like a leaking tap.
We play golf for mostly pleasure playing in very few individual comps. Mostly due my eyesight and not seeing my ball flight or direction.
It seems to me that we have no incentive whatsoever to enter comps. In our last comp I gave away 5 shots and my wife 6shots. Yet a low handicap golfer might be giving away very few shots.
If WHS is to make the game fairer to all. Sorry but it’s a massive failure.unless your a low handicap golfer,when the odds are clearly in your favour.
