You must be a lady golfer, as the maximum handicap for men is 28. But, it all depends on the competition scratch score. If the c.s.s was equal to par, your exact handicap would get cut by 6x0.4 = 2.4. So if you played off 36.0 you would get cut to 33.6 (34).
No, not really. This is because you will need a handicap so they can see how many shots you get on certain holes and therefore how many points you make. If it is an unofficial competition you may be able to play in it, so check before hand. But if it is an official competition, it is unlikely you will be able to play.
Three rounds off the competition tees, card marked and signed by member.
If you mean when you are collecting three cards for a handicap then no. If you mean during a competition round then yes, unless they do not complete the round, in which case another playing partner must continue marking.
A standard scratch score for a competition is known as a competition scratch score. It will be calculated by the match and handicap committee after all scores from the competition have been returned. You will usually be told what this is in a club announcement or it will be put along with the results. However if you are not told this you may ask the committee to disclose it.
