That happened at my club because one of the members was posting a lot of scores from outside courses and no one was verifying what he was shooting and his handicap was going up quickly.  Not sure what the ramifications are for having the "M" there though. Do you not get to play in tournaments?

See 8-3 of the USGA Handicap Manual for details.   By the way, the Handicap Committee is required to notify you prior to modifying your handicap to gain your explanation of something they have determined to warrant modification.

this is sometimes what happens to sandbaggers..........The club pro had to modify your index down because your previous index wasn't accurate.   IE........you enter a tourney as a 13HC, but miraculously find a way to shoot very low "NET SCORES" whenever you enter a club tourney.

I have seen the *m* twice next to friends names.

For both of them it happened when they reestablished their GHIN handicap when rejoining the club.

Their old scores from 2 years ago popped up and they had the *m* during the first revision, after that it immediately went away.

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
