    Question Handicap Calculations

    Here is my dilemma. When inputting my info on the OG Handicap system I have NOT done my calculations using the "course handicap".
    My question is, with 80 rounds now in the system is it worth my time to go back and correct this error? I am usually on the bubble between 18/19 handicap and depending on the course I may be able to deduct my triple bogeys. This may make a difference in my ESC score of between 1-3 strokes a round.
    I have not participated in any events that require me to have an accurate handicap factor, and I don’t see this ever happening. For me it is just about measuring my improvement, day/day, year/year.
    If the advice is to go back to square one, then where are the instructions for how to begin building a true handicap - the procedure for the first 7-10 rounds. I quickly searched the forum for this but got too many hits to go through. I have a log of all my stats, courses, slope, and scores so the research will not be that difficult.
    Thanks,

    Kiwi--how did the system accept your score not using all the numbers?
    Does the 2nd hole-n-one come easier ?

    If you chose the Course and tees you played, it does the slope and rating for you.
