The formula
points = max(0, 2 − (strokes − shots received − par))
Net double bogey or worse scores 0, net bogey 1, net par 2, net birdie 3, net eagle 4 and net albatross 5.
What to watch out for
A handicap of 14 gives one shot on the 14 holes with the lowest stroke index. Above 18, the extra shots go round again from index 1. Competition allowances differ, so enter the playing handicap you were given. This method does not apply to plus handicaps.
