Just wanted to introduce myself. I've done alot of looking through the forums but not much posting. At least, not yet. Anyways I'm 18 years old, live in Terre Haute, IN (if you guys know where that is). I work at a golf course about 15 miles from here, and I get free unlimited golf at what most people consider to be a nice course.

I'll definitely use this forum for discussion (and tips, lots of them).

Mapquest says we're about 3 hours away (TH, IN to Beechmont, KY). I would say I'm a little over an hr from Evansville.

Geneva Hills Golf Course--Clinton, IN. I'd say its one of the nicer ones in the area. TH courses kinda suck for the most part.

The only TH course I've played is Coyote Creek (formerly the Elks I believe). It was a company outing so I wasn't paying anything and it was an okay course. Definitely a bit overpriced though looking at the pricing list in the clubhouse.

Granted, I'm probably just being a snooty Indy guy.

Took a look at the website, looks pretty decent. Love the prices lol! They should put a scorecard on there.

HA! I'm actually convinced that its the crappiest website ever put together. It makes the course look nasty. That website is at least 5-7 years old. I'd say the course is probably in alot better shape than the looks on there.

I don't have to pay but yeah I'd say the prices are reasonable.

Hopping in and hijacking your thread. I'm from Brownsburg, 10 miles West of Indy. Home course is Quail Creek in Pittsboro. Also play West Chase in Brownsburg, as well as Eagle Creek, Saddlebrook, and Riverside. Also like Trophy Club in Lebanon. My low-budget course is the community course in Pittsboro if I'm playing by myself or working on something specific in my game. Been addicted to this forum since I discovered it a couple weeks ago. Good advice on equipment and swing advice, etc. Although I'm undecided about how much I'll really post in the forums.

Interesting, we live in the same city and play the same courses. My local is White Lick.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
