Stableford Scoring for Blue Heron

If you have never played a Stableford, all you really need to know is that you will play your own ball and record the gross score on each hole for both you and your partner. I will convert your scores to Stableford points at the end of your round. Both players’ points count on each hole (aggregate scoring).

A Stableford is a stroke-play competition in which the high total wins, not the low. That's because in Stableford, your final score is not your stroke total, but rather the total points you have earned for your scores on each individual hole.

This is a two-man or two-woman team tournament in which both players’ Stableford points will be added together.  There are no negative points – if your partner has a bad hole, he/she will not drag down the team score. The JustGolf Stableford tournament is a net and gross tournament and awards points as follows:

• Net or gross double bogey or worse: 0
• Net or gross bogey: 1 point
• Net or gross par: 2 points
• Net or gross birdie: 3 points
• Net or gross eagle: 4 points
• Net or gross double eagle (albatross): 5 points

Players will receive 100% of their Course Handicap. The maximum Course Handicap is 18 for men, 24 for women.
