I guess someone decided to do more work for little benefit then. I might be the lucky one then. I have a +3 and a +1 on my counted scores. -

I've only seen one positive PCC since it began, a +3 during a tournament on a tough, firm course with the wind blowing at least 30 mph. A scratch golfer got so frustrated he pulled out after 9. Sadly, the +3 did nothing for me as I was a good 10-12 strokes above the score counting. Currently 3 of my last 7 scores have a negative PCC. Of course, all 3 of those are in my best eight. I'm puzzled, as the wind was blowing pretty good on at least two of those rounds. -

It changed to the best 8 of the last 20, in the 2020 changes. When I attended a Handicapping Workshop in 2020, we were told that they anticipated that the PCC would apply in about 10% of the rounds. That's about what I see now, maybe slightly more often since the algorithm was tweaked not long ago. And remember, the PCC will adjust MOST of the scores on a given day towards the mean. With a positive PCC (more high scores), most players scores wouldn't be in the best 8/20 even with the PCC, so the impact is nothing, although the few players who had a good day will see the impact on their HI increased. I believe it will be very rare that a player has even two scores in their best 8 with any kind of PCC. -

There was a PCC of +3 at Talamore the day I played in Pinehurst! Somehow that course was killing us all, lol. If it is still the best 10 out of 20, So, it would amount to .1. It matters more if you end up with like 5 out of 10 of your counted differentials having PCC. That could equal a full stroke. Yea, I think it will influence handicaps like 0 to let's say 2 for handicaps. -

I posted as well, I hope most of us did. I'm still not sure the PCC system makes a significant difference, but it certainly won't work as intended if golfers don't post on the day of play.
