Course Handicap = Handicap Index x (Slope Rating/113) + (Course Rating - Par)

If your index is 30, then your handicap at various courses would be (Black tees, Blue tees, White tees):

Priddis - Hawk: (38,35,26)
Priddis - Raven: (35,32,25)
Elbow Springs - Mountainview/Elbow (36,33,29)
Elbow Springs - MV/Springs (36,32,28)
Elbow Springs - Elbow/Springs (27,33,29)

Glencoe - Forest (40,37,34)
Glencoe - Lakes/Slopes (39,34,32)
Calgary G&CC - (n/a,35,33)
Willow Park (n/a,33,31)
Earl Grey (35,32,28)
Shaganappi (28,25,22)

So if you're playing somebody at Elbow Springs on the Elbow/Springs course, and you're playing the blues, your handicap is 33. If you're playing the white tees, it's 29.


Who knew golf could be so much fun?!
