Do I adjust my tournament rounds just like I do my normal rounds, or do I post the "true" score?

Source: URL above All scores for handicap purposes, including tournament scores, are subject to the application of Equitable Stroke Control (ESC). This mandatory procedure reduces high hole scores for handicap purposes in order to make handicaps more representative of a player's potential ability.

Googled "using equitable stroke control in tournaments". First result.

Even though the "true" score counts for the tournament, any blowup holes must still be adjusted to your allowed maximum before entering for handicap.
