Unfortunately, with the group of golfers I play with, a maximum score on a hole happens quite frequently! Since we all do maintain a handicap we seem to frequently deal with this issue. Our handicaps vary from a 15 to a 26!
I believe we should play out each hole completely and then adjust our final recorded score using the USGA Equitable Stroke Control rules . . . but I'm not sure. But we don't! If we did, our pace of play would shoot up and I have a feeling our club members would lynch us!! Hahahaha!
I'm a 19 handicap so I believe my hole maximum per USGA is a 7. BUT if my handicap slips to a 20 my maximum goes to a 8 per hole! Whatever the "par" is on a hole doesn't matter. This seems stupid to us. Triple bogey seems more rational.
How do you all handle this? What should we be doing to keep the pace of play reasonable and also be fair.
