Ok. So been at this for a month I played the same course its a par 3 29.   I looked for the slope and course rating. I float between 42&47 for a score each week.   Do par 3's even have slope and course rating.  Do I need to know my handicap?

Welcome to the forum!

You can look up course rating and slope here https://ncrdb.usga.org/NCRDB/

If you just started out I wouldn't worry too much about handicap. I would just keep trying to improve.

Ok and thanks. I saw it asked for it on here and thought I I should know it. And what exactly is a handicap and does it change for each course?

Here is the intro information from the USGA

http://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/Handicapping/handicap-manual.html#!rule-14367

The handicap can stay the same for a while, or change drastically depending on the variance in scores from the golfer.

There is a difference between course handicap and handicap. The handicap is turned into a course handicap for competitions and such.

      Future Pro: Miles Russell Age 15

      By StuM ·

      I do not follow amateur or Korn Ferry tour but this story might get me to pay attention. At age 15 to be as accomplished as he is makes me think we may be seeing a future star.  A story of him breaking out may help reinvigorate golf viewership. Miles Russell has a hot start, cools off but finishes with a 68 in first Korn Ferry event Miles Russell, a 15-year-old Jacksonville Beach resident, made his Korn Ferry Tour debut on...

      Day 55: 4/18/2024 Got to the range again today. Planned to do my priority pieces and then hit targets with irons. But after my priority pieces I hit a few drives and tugged them all hard left. .... Uh... oh boy.  So, I spent about a half hour trying to hit targets at the range with my driver.
