This mandatory procedure reduces high hole scores for handicap purposes in order to make handicaps more representative of a players potential ability. To figure your equitable stroke control maximum post able score simply add six to the first digit of your handicap for those whose handicaps are 10 or more. i.e. if your handicap is under ten your maximum allowable score is a double bogey. If your handicap is 10, add 6 to the first digit which equals 7, therefore the maximum score that you can post is a 7. If your handicap is your max score is 8, you may post as much as 9, and 40 or higher you may post as high as a 10 on any one hole.
