THE MEDALLION CLUB 2009 TOURNAMENT GUIDE
Handicapping Know how to use the handicap system Post all scores no matter where you play. This includes scores you made in both match play and stroke play, including those you made in team competitions. Remember, for away scores, you will need the Course handicap rating and The Course Slope rating of the course played for posting. Also, record your score as soon as possible so that your scoring record is up to date for the next revision. Post your score when you play at least 13 holes. On holes you didn t play, record a par plus any handicap strokes you would have received. Post all nine hole scores no matter what tees you play. The computer will take care of of combining the nines. Once combined, the score will have a C after it. Know your Handicap Index. It s the number you get in the form of a whole number and a decimal fraction( ex. 11.6). Your index isn t your handicap; it simply leads you to your handicap based on the course and set of tees you will play. Convert your index to your handicap. Use the handicap Table that is Posted at every golf course. The Handicap Table is the key. Without it, you can t use your index. Locate your index for the slope of the tees you will be playing and get you handicap for the day (ex. 11.6 converts to handicap 14 on tees with slope 132). At The Medallion Club you can get your handicap for any tee from the handicap computer. Adjust your score properly before posting. There is a maximum number that you can post on any hole depending on your handicap. This downward adjustment of an individual hole score for handicap purposes is based on the following table: Handicap maximum number on any hole 9 or less double bogey 10 through 19 7 20 through 29 8 30 through 39 9 40 or higher 10
What qualifies as a Tournament? Tournament score identification is for competitions that are significant in the traditions and membership of the club. Examples of tournament scores are team matches (ex. Member- Member), Member- Guest competitions, stroke and match play club championships, and city, state and national competitions. Note: Weekly play days are not to be designated as tournament scores. What is the purpose of Reducing Handicap Indexes based on Tournament scores? To identify Players who consistently excel in competition well beyond their current USGA Handicap Index and to lower their Handicap Index to better reflect their potential scoring ability. Less than one- half of one per cent of golfers are affected by this procedure. How Does The Procedure Work? When a player has returned two or more tournament scores within the last twelve months; or within the player s current 20 score history that are exceptionally(3 or more strokes) lower than his or her USGA Handicap Index, the player will be subject to an automatic reduction of his or her USGA Handicap Index. On Tournament Days there will be an announcement as a reminder to post the score with a T designation. The Handicap Committee will review all postings for these designated tournaments. The Handicap Committee will randomly review Twilight and Dogfight scores. The Competitor is responsible to properly enter Dogfight and Twilight scores. The Tournament Committee will review Dogfight Scores.
Tournaments Designated as Tournament Scores for 2009 A Tournament Score is a score made in a competition, which is conducted by a committee such as a District Golf Association, or a committee of a club. The competition must identify winners based on a stipulated number of rounds and must be played under the Rules of Golf. The committee will announce, in advance, that the score must be identified with the letter T when posted. Tournament Score identification is for competitions that are significant in the traditions and membership of the club. On Tournament Days, there will be an announcement by a member of the Handicap Committee or the Golf Staff as a reminder to post score with a T.

Etiquette and Pace of Play Etiquette: Golf is best played by adhering to the following two principles: 1. Play the ball as it lies. 2. Play and leave the Course as you find it. To leave the Course as you find it means: Repair Ball Marks Replace Divots Rake Bunkers Obey Cart Regulations Following these simple principles will allow everyone to enjoy the game. Pace of Play: The pace of play is a continuing focus of the golf operation. Starting, turn, and finishing times are closely monitored. Players who fail to keep up with the pace of play will be notified by a letter from the Golf Shop with their time of play. This letter will detail fast play tips to help maintain pace in the future. Adopt these resolutions for faster play: 1. Play ready Golf. Tee off when ready, hit when ready, and putt out when ready. 2. If carts are restricted to the cart path only, take extra clubs with you so you will not have to return to the cart. 3. Minimize practice swings. If possible, take them while others are playing their shots. 4. Play from the tee markers that are appropriate for your skill level. 5. Do not spend unnecessary time looking for lost balls. Though the rules allow 5 minutes to search for a lost ball, course usage may dictate that you can spend only one or two minutes in order to keep up with the group in front of you. If you think your ball may be lost outside of a water hazard, you may play a provisional ball. 6. Do not stop for lunch at the turn. Quick food is available from the beverage cart and the Halfway House. 7. Minimize cell phone usage. 8. Be in position and ready to hit when it is your turn to play. 9. The Pace of Play at the Medallion Club is 4 hours and 10 minutes for a foursome.
