Dear JustGolfers,
I will start e-mailing membership information mid-March. In
the meantime, before you purchase a handicap for 2017, please consider the
following before you choose your handicap service provider this season.
Players are entitled to review their fellow competitors’
handicaps and scoring records. This is known as “peer review.”
Everyone is able to easily access your handicap record if
you subscribe to the GHIN handicap service.
If you subscribe to a handicap service other than GHIN,
fellow competitors who do not know the name of your service provider cannot
access your scoring and handicap records. Since they are entitled to view that
information, I will supply the name of the handicap service of any player who
does not subscribe to GHIN to any competitor who would like to view that
player’s records.
If your scoring and handicap records are password protected,
you should find a different handicap service that allows free access to these
records. Examples of handicap services that do allow free access are: GHIN, Golf Services Group, and Golf
Handicap Network.
Regards,
Linda
