  • Guide to Plus Handicaps Or: Fun with Icky Math (And Confusing Concepts)
    Guide to Plus Handicaps Or: Fun with Icky Math (and confusing concepts) Why is a handicap on the other side of zero, which you would think should be represented as a minus number, actually called a Plus Handicap? Because the lucky player who carries it has to give back, or ADD strokes to their gross score to arrive at a net result. It’s helpful to remember that in handicapping, we are always trying to get to zero (Scratch). When a zero-handicap golfer plays a 5.0 handicap player, most of us can accept that the higher- Handicap player needs more strokes from the lower-Handicap player as the Slope increases and less as the Slope decreases. Now imagine the same for a +5.0 player and a zero-Handicap player. As Slope increases the higher-Handicap player (even though at Scratch) needs more strokes from the lower-Handicap player and, conversely, fewer strokes as Slope decreases. (Question to self: is anyone going to believe a scratch player NEEDS STROKES?) Most of the issues with Plus Handicaps arise when – let’s face it – we are doing the (icky) math! Here are some tips and Q & A to make it easier to understand. Where to Apply Strokes – A player with a plus Course Handicap must add strokes according to the allocation table (handicap stroke holes) beginning with the 18th stroke hole. For example, when a player with a plus Course Handicap competes in a partnership stroke play competition, a team (side) with a Course Handicap of +1 must add a stroke to its score on the hole designated as the 18th stroke hole.

    176 American Antiquarian Society He was a life member of the Royal Society of Arts London, and was elected to membership in this Society April 1888, serving as Treasurer from 1907 to 1916 T. H. G! HENRY PHELPS JOHNSTON Henry Pheips Johnston was born April 19, 1842 at Trebizond, Turkey, where his parents were living as missionaries of the American Board of Foreign Mis- sions. His father. Rev. Thomas Pinckney Johnston, was descended from Robert Johnston, a Scotchman who settled in Tredell County, N. C, and his mother' Marianne Cassandra Howe, was descended from John Howe of Scranton, Vt., who came from England in 1650. Young Johnston received his early education at Hopkins Grammar School, New Haven, and was graduated with the degree of B.A. at Yale University in 1862. In the following August he enlisted as a private in the 15th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry and served throughout the war until July, 1865, when he was honorably discharged, having attained to the rank of second lieutenant. From 1865 to 1867 he attended the Yale School of Law and after admission to the bar he practiced his profession for a short while in New York City and was also engaged in teaching. In 1868 he abandoned the law and was thereafter, until 1879, occupied in newspaper work in connection with the "New York Sun,""Times/'"Christian Union" and the "Observer," being assistant editor of the last named in 1878 and 1879. During this period he devoted much time to original investigations of American history and published several monographs. In December, 1879, he became instructor in history in the College of the City of New York and, in 1883, was made head of that department, which position he held until September 1, 1916, when he retired with the title of professor emeritus.
