It’s imagined that England Golf have found that people have finally got used to individuals having an index which multiplied by the slope rating for the different tees gives them their playing HCP.
Therefore, they have decided to add another component into the mix now 🤣
Are you sitting comfortably?
We now have CR-PAR ie Course rating minus course PAR to add.
FYI at Hartswood
White CR = 70, par = 70 Phew…..I hear you say so off whites it has no affect
Yellow CR =68.2, par = 70 ie MINUS 1.8 therefore you will be playing off circa 2 less than you did before 1/4/24 (This calc is added to the previous calculation before it was rounded off which might make a small difference)
Reds CR = 71.6, par = 70 ie 1.6 MORE ie circa 2 more than you did before 1/4/24 (This calc is added to the previous calculation before it was rounded off which might make a small difference)
In reality you should have nothing to do because the Club computer or you phone app will sort it for you but, thought you ought to be aware why your index has dropped when you play your next round off the yellows or increased in the ladies case.
If I've got this wrong which is possible I'm sure our CC will advise accordingly.
