Temporary Green Scoring

Temporary Green Scoring, how does this work.
Two greens were Temps due to maintenance on the course, all they did was stick a flag in the ground 35 yards in front of the green.
How do you score these two holes for the purpose of handicap, you sure can't putt them??

You enter a score of par + any handicap strokes you would have received for those holes.

Thanks, from the handicap manual (RCGA) this is my understanding as well.

Just to be clear, for a hole with a temporary green, no matter what you shoot, for handicap purposes, you disregard the actual score and enter par plus any handicap strokes if it's a stroke hole.

For me, last night, I doubled the stupid thing, but it wasn't a stroke hole, so for HC purposes I put in a par. Correct?

For my playing partner, he actually birdied it naturally, but it was a stroke hole, so he has to enter a bogie. Correct?
