Hello all newbie here to the forum. Next weekend I will be playing in my first club tournament. It is a 3 day deal with a practice round on Friday and then 2 tournament rounds on Saturday and Sunday. This is my first tournament since I was in high school (which were just one day tournaments). Can anyone give me some advice on what to expect going into this tournament? How can I prepare myself for an all weekend event? Also how will this tournament be different then the high school tournaments that I played in? Thanks for any advice and help.

I guess the biggest difference is that you got 36 holes instead of 9. More time to either score or recover from a bad hole. I didnt play high school golf, but i would imagine that the feeling is no different. What you should expect at the tourney all depends on you. You create your own reality in golf.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
