That is very helpful thank you. Having read appendix “O” it looks like a mark my playing handicap as per usual, and then also note the competition handicap, which would be my playing handicap plus 3 in this example.

Thank you Rulesman, yes that is correct I'm in the UK. OK so if my handicap wouldn't be affected, why wouldn't a play off the red tee's in a mixed tee stableford as it would clearly be an advantage? Why would someone play from the white's?

New member here. Hopefully this question is in the right section. My club runs mixed tee stableford competitions, the par for the course is 70. The ccs’s for men are red - 67, yellow - 68, and white -70. As a 17 handicapper, am I correct in thinking I would gain an additional 3 shots when playing from the whites, and therefore a gross double bogey on SI 1 & 2 would yield me 2 stableford points? How would this affect handicap changes also playing off either of the three tee’s? Any help would be much appreciated.
