Some People wanted to know how to score stableford, this is an example below:
The Golf Guide to Scoring
Stableford
Let's say you are a scratch golfer (i.e. handicap of 0). If you score a par on every hole, you will end up with 36 points. (i.e. 2 points per hole x 18 holes = 36 points). If you had scored 16 pars and had two birdies, your total would be 38 points, etc.
What about players with handicaps?
As part of the World Handicap System, at nearly every course around the world, each hole is ranked 1-18 by difficulty. The hardest hole is ranked number 1, while the easiest hole is ranked 18th, etc. The ranking is called a hole's index, and they are listed on the scorecard (sometimes they are called the Hole's Handicap Index.)
Here's where it gets interesting: The index on the scorecard determines how many strokes a player receives on the hole, depending on their handicap. These strokes are like "extra shots" that give you a better chance of scoringpoints.
Example:
ONE: Let's say a player has a Handicap of 15. He or she will thus get a shot on the 15 hardest holes as noted by the course scorecard (again, every course has all 18 holes"indexed" from 1 (hardest) to 18 (easiest).
The player approaches the first hole of the day (let's say it is a par-4), and sees that it has an index of 13 (i.e. the thirteenth-hardest hole on the course). He or she thus gets a stroke on the hole. Let's say this player takes 5 shots on the hole. In stroke golf, this would be a bogey. However, in Stableford, since the player gets a stroke on the hole, their "nett" score is 4 (i.e. 5 shots minus the handicap stroke). Therefore, they have made a "nett par" and get two points.
On the scorecard, the player marks "5" for score (i.e. actual strokes), and marks 2 in the points column.
If, on that same hole, the player had taken 6 shots, then they would mark 6 for score, and 1 in points. However, If they had taken 4 shots (gross par), they would mark 4 forscore, and 3 for points (nett birdie).
TWO: Let's say a player has a Handicap of 45. With this handicap you would get 2 stokes for holes 1 to 36 and then the extra 9 holes you would get 3 shots. So, he or she will get 3 strokes on holes indexed 1 to 9 and 2 strokes on holesindexed 10 to 18.
Let's say this player takes 7 shots on the fifth hole (index one). In stroke golf, this would be a triple bogey. However, in Stableford, since the player gets 3 strokes on the hole, and the hole is a par 4 (the player gets 4 + 3 extra strokes). Therefore, they have made a "nett par"(as their net par is 7) so they score two points.
On the scorecard, the player marks "7" for score (i.e. actual strokes), and marks 2 in the pointscolumn.
Remember this player gets two shots on holes indexed 1 to 36 and three shots on the 9 hardest holes as noted by the
course scorecard (again, every course has all 18 holes "indexed" from 1 (hardest) to 18 (easiest). Woodville and Auburn index from 1 to 36.
The player approaches the first hole of the day (let's say it is a par-4), and sees that it has an index of 6 (i.e. the sixth-hardest hole on the course).
If, on that same hole, the player had taken 6 shots, then they would mark 6 for score, and 3 in points. However, If they had taken 5 shots, they would mark 5 for score, and 4 for points. If they had taken 7 shots, they would mark 7 forthe score and 2 for points.
Final scores are totalled and the player with the best (highest) stableford score on the day is the winner.
Golf Weekend away 2025
We have booked to go to Oberon this year. We have tried to get away from school holidays. The dates confirmed are: Friday 31st October to Sunday 2nd November. We have booked the Highlands Motor Inn and Bruce has secured the rooms for the Friday and Saturday nights. If you intend on going it is important that you book your room ASAP and letBruce know once you have confirmed the booking. If you haven’t, please see Bruce for the information about the motel contact details.
Let’s Remember those armed service people at this coming ANZAC day:
Unless you’ve been a soldier,
You just won’t understand.
The things that we have seen and done,
In the service of our land.
We were trained to live in combat,
And to deal with awful sights,
That shouldn’t be seen by anyone
And keep you awake at nights.
We don’t discuss the wounds we have,
To the body or the mind.
We just put our hurts behind us,
And turn our memories blind.
We are proud we served our country,
But remember those we lost.
For the freedom that you have today,
They paid the awful cost.
