My daughter is playing a small par 3 course, 18 holes (par 54). The scorecard gives a course rating, but the card says slope is ZERO.  How is index and course handicap calculated? (I just put in 113 for the slope and it looks about right).  She also says she has joined a womens'  league and will be playing nine holes. (assuming a standard course).  I am sure they will be able to establish her handicap. (N)

Does the course have a website? If it has a rating and spot for slope on the card then perhaps the cards were misprinted and the numbers can be found online.

Yes, I got the card online:  http://www.greenskeeper.org/southern_california/san_diego/reidy_creek_golf_course/scorecard.cfm

Never mind...I found it (on another website -JC Golf), the slope is 100

THANKS

Courses shorter than 3000 yards (for 18 holes; 1500 for 9 holes) don't qualify for a USGA Course Rating and Slope Rating.  They can get a USGA Short Course Rating, but the short course rating does not include a slope.

      Day 32 (9 Apr 26) - Grandson is on spring break- puts in to play 9 at our home course.  Used it to work on top of horizon target point for drives and approaches…i.e. pick landing zone (fairway, green) , an intermediate target point and finally what standout feature do I want to hit “over” on the horizon (tall pine, home top, flag pole).    Better l-r dispersion w/5 of 7 drives in the short grass.  Nice little addition to the pre-shot routine.

      I managed to get the full afternoon to watch (Pacific time, so the ESPN broadcast began at noon).  I just saw the first shot I feel like commenting on:  Adam Scott's tee shot on #16 was really good, especially after having what might be the worst kind of Maltese Falcon on #15.    I didn't used to like him, but the past few years he's grown on me quite a bit.

      I am terrible at the hip stuff so have no idea how to get it right but you look like you are trying to stall hip slide altogether.

      I think you are right about the margin of error. I was watching the Yankees Vs Athletics the other night. They overturned multiple calls cause it was just outside the box, but then kept a few strikes that just touched the line of the box. the difference in the 2 pitches was maybe a 1/16 of an inch.
