Course setup screen

To access the Courses screen click Courses in the Setup sidebar.

You can set as many courses as you require. Each Course has its own unique 6 character reference to identify it. If the whole family plays and your golf club has a separate card for men, ladies and juniors, and maybe a different card again for winter and summer, you can set each different card as its own ‘course’ with its own unique code.

Example Summer/Mendip Spring Golf Club/Ladies Code MS S L

Each Player has a home course on myGolfscorer which the system defaults to.

PAR is the expected standard number of strokes to be taken from the tee to holing the ball. The PAR for each hole is set by the Golf Club and is recorded on its score card. PAR is always greater than ZERO. You can enter PARs of 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 in myGolfscorer.

STROKE INDEX (SI) is the relative difficulty of each hole as decided by the Golf Club and is recorded for each hole on its score card. SI 1 is considered to be the most difficult hole, the second most difficult is SI 2 and the easiest is SI 18.

The SI for each hole is a unique number between 1 and 18.
See the 9 Hole Course Set Up for further Stroke Index information.

In Stableford, Bogey, Par or Matchplay competitions the Stroke Index determines whether a player receives a shot allowance on a particular hole.
