    see if mailing it causes any problems.  V1.1 is ready and waiting.

    Hi Kevin,
    	I've only just found this conference, so couldn't give you an
    answer before. Did you ever get one?  In case you didn't .......
    
    As a general answer, the USGA Handicap formula is based strictly upon
    Differentials, i.e., the excess of actual score over Course Rating in
    each case - not upon the Scores themselves. The Course Rating is, in
    fact, intended to minimize the variations in difficulty in playing
    different courses, so that all scores, wherever made, can and SHOULD be
    included in all Handicap computations.  This has been the USGA practice
    for quite some time.
    
    However, just to confuse the issue, the USGA is currently advocating a
    new variable  -  SLOPE.  It has now been accepted that the Course
    Rating as previously identified can only be an indicator of playing
    difficulty  -  as it affects the SCRATCH GOLFER.  The higher
    handicapper is likely to experience much more of a problem away
    from 'home', especially if playing a hard(er) course for the first
    time.  To counteract this, the USGA has come up with the idea of a
    Slope Rating for each Course, as well as the original one; this
    new rating is also to be factored into the Handicap formula.  They have
    asked local (State) Golf Associations to reassess all Courses for
    both ratings, so that the new formula can be applied asap (NH was done
    last year).
    
    And the new formula is:
    
    	Differential  =  (Actual Score  -  Course Rating) * 113
                         --------------------------------------
    			         Slope Rating
    
         (where 113 is deemed to be the rating for "YOUR AVERAGE COURSE")
   
    The average of the 10 lowest Differentials (from the last 20 recorded)
    is still multiplied by 0.96, but now gives what is termed a "HANDICAP
    INDEX".  This has to be translated into a Handicap for the Course
    being played, when needed (using tables posted in the Clubhouse  -  if
    they're on the ball  -  or by reversing the adjustment, i.e., multiply
    the Index by Slope Rating and divide by 113).
    
    Sorry if this all sounds like gobbledygook  -  would be pleased
    to give you more info. if you need it.

    [Incidentally, in answer to Note 27, I too happen to have a program that
    I wrote so that I, as Handicap Chairman, might maintain the Handicaps of the
    100 or so members of the Golf Association at my club.  Originally
    written in BASIC for my on PDT, and now modified into BASIC PLUS on my
    PRO, this is fully up-to-date on all changes, like Slope, combining
    nine-hole scores to form 18s as allowed, etc.  It also allows automatic
    ESC adjustment of all scores on any course a Member may happen to
    play.  I don't think there would be any point in my trying to put
    this program up for general consumption  (I'd need to make some
    changes because it's set up for a particular club; besides, I should
    probably be concerned that it's not 100 pc 'idiot-proof').  However,
    if anyone is really interested, they can contact me by mail at
    WEBSTR::WILLIS].

Roger,

Sorry for not asking earlier but with the Hibernation period over and the
scent of honey dipped golf balls.... is this formula to be used only when an 
individual golfs on an "Unfamiliar" course.  If its intention was to aid high
handicapers with playing these unfamiliar courses it would seem once the 
course becomes "known" that this formula should not be used as the high 
handicaper is at an addvantage.  If that being so then what has been 
determined as the number of times a course must be played to be called 
"familiar".  How many Leagues out there are using this "New and Improved"
methode.  I've yet to see it up here in Maine.  But then again we've been
known to be a might bit slow ayuuuuuuuun. 8^)
                                                     Regards, Kevin
