Please remember to help your fellow golfers to understand the changes as a result of the adoption of the USGA Course Rating system. Some of them may not have been receiving these communications from us or their clubs.
We are confident that, after a little time, you will come to appreciate that the USGA Course Rating System will give us all a more accurate and fair Course Handicap, as well as allow us to choose to play off any colour course (tee) for men, and those rated for women, at a club on any given day.
