I know in Canada you need 20 scores to get an official index. I don't know the exact number of rounds required in the US, however I am sure it's similar.

As well I am sure there are a number of online tools that you can use to figure out your handicap without having to disclose to anyone other than a computer.

This might help you:

You might be able to get one with 10 games but I know the RCGA website states 10 best of the last 20.

Yeah you can do it with 10... you take your best 3 rounds out of those 10 to determine your handicap, but the easiest way is to just go to that website shown above.

In my (crossing my fingers for Syracuse Orange Cart) bag:
Tour Burner 10.5* Stiff
Walter Hagen 3 metal
Tour Preferred S300 DGs (3-PW)
Tour Preferred 52.08 GWWalter Hagen 56* SW Studio Stainless Newport 2 point 5 ProV1x's if i got em, but usually TP blacks

This is a little off of the topic, but when I started golfing again after a 37 year hiatus. I would keep score until I reached 50, (for 9 holes). After that I didn't keep score, but just focused on striking the ball.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
