GHIN Update

Tournament scores that were brought over during the conversion into the player's file only included the date of the round and the handicap differential. In order for the information to be displayed in GHIN the score, course rating and Slope rating had to be artificially created to arrive at the correct handicap differential. So if the player sees a score listed under the two low tournament scores that they did not shoot please understand the handicap differential and the date are correct but the score and ratings do not match what they shot that day.

If a golfer is reactivated at the SCGA office or through www.ghinclub.net, the Handicap Index will not be displayed until the next revision takes place. If you would like the golfer to be listed with an index immediately you will need to use the modified index feature. An option is to use the player's trend and have it removed on the day of the next Handicap Index revision.

The association golfer list has been pushed down to all clubs in Southern California. When a player in Southern California posts a score they will be recognized with their name and current index prior to entering the scoring information.

You can look up any player's Handicap Index in Southern California on the posting screen by selecting the Guest CRS HCP Lookup button and then selecting the HDCP Lookup button. By entering the last name of the golfer you will see a list of player's in Southern California and what their Handicap Index is. However, you are not able to retrieve the player's SCGA membership number.
