The Callaway Scoring System

The Callaway Scoring System is utilized for players without a verifiable handicap. A player's net score is determined after each round by deducting the worst individual holes during the first 16 holes, holes 17 and 18 may not be consider as worst holes. And no hole may be scored at more than twice its par. The table below shows the number of "worst holes" allowed by the player's gross score and the adjustment to be made based on the gross score.

As example, if a player's gross score is 100, the player's 3 worst holes are deducted. Let's say a 7, 8, & 9 for a deduction of 24. In addition the player's adjustment to the deduction is a +2 for a 26 total. Therefore, the player's net score would be 74. Ties are awarded to lowest handicap.
