• Handicap Index is as of the May 15 revision.                               
• Course Handicap is based on the slope rating.                             
• CH Adjustment is based on points accumulated in tournaments during the past two years for first, second, or third place net finishes (see the Handicap Adjustment         Chart on the JustGolf website: http://justgolftournaments.blogspot.com).
• Tournament CH is the player’s Course H’cap minus the CH Adjustment.
• 40% CH and 25% CH: In a scramble, the player with the lower CH receives 40% of CH, and the player with the higher CH receives 25% of CH.      
• Forward tee adjustment is the number of strokes subtracted for men       playing from the forward tees: 68.5–67=1.5/2=.75.                 

• Team Handicap is the number of strokes the team will receive in the tournament.
