About Golf Hcp Index and Allowances
This app has all the golf handicap calculations you need: handicap indexes from player scores, course handicaps from indexes, and individual/team handicap allowances for competition formats.
This app provides the following functions:
* Compute the USGA Handicap Index (HCI) for any player in your Roster
> Get separately computed 18-hole HCI and 9-hole HCI from player scores
> Can manually enter an HCI for any player with no recorded scores
> Customize the HCI computation with number of scores needed and used
* Automatically compute a player Course Handicap (Hcp) from their HCI
> Includes "+" handicaps for better-than-scratch players
> Customize the maximum HCI value used when computing the Hcp.
* Compute USGA Handicap Allowances for many competition formats
> Formats include individual, team-of-2, and team-of-4 competitions
> Adjusts for mixed tee ratings for different player levels, ages, and genders
> Both 18 hole and 9 hole competitions
* Supports multiple foursomes of players, for small and large outings
* Has Player roster management
* Has Golf course data management
* Has Player Score management
For any player in your roster, either enter their HCI manually, or have this app automatically compute it from their recorded score history. Separate 18-hole and 9-hole HCIs are computed from 18-hole and 9-hole rounds. Also, customize the number of scores needed, and the maximum number used to compute that HCI. This supports weekly 9-hole golf leagues with novice players who play infrequently.
This app computes golf handicap allowances for many stroke and match play formats for individual, 2-player, and 4-player team competitions. Team play formats include best ball, total score, foursome alternate ball, Pinehurst (aka Chapman), and scramble for 2-player teams; plus best ball, best-2 balls, and scramble for 4-player teams.
The app can be used for mixed-tee and mixed-gender outings with many foursomes of players competing. There are integrated tools for managing a player roster, and favorite golf courses.
This app uses official USGA handicap allowance formulas, but Settings allow some variations.
by S####:
This app has more features than any other handicapping app out there. You can compute indexes from scores for as many players as you want. And separate 18-hole and 9-hole indexes are independently calculated. Plus, there are settings for customizing all computations. This is especially useful for 9-hole weekly golf leagues with novice players who play infrequently. No other app supports this type of functionality. Try this app, and you'll agree that it sets a new standard.
