It depends completely on the competition scratch score for the course you are playing. But generally your handicap could range from 12 to as much as 18.
Get over it. Quickly.
If its a team of four 1/10 of combined handicap should be used so it follows that over nine hole 1/20 of combined handicap is the answer.
For a man 28 is the highest handicap you can have, so anything over 28 over par will give you a 28 handicap. Say CSS = PAR every week, you will need to consistently shoot 27 over par to get cut to 27.
A handicap of 16 is respectable if you aren't planning on trying out for the PGA. A 16 handicap says your average score is 16 shots over par for that course.
8
Well it is hard to say, if you told me what your handicap was I could tell you what you needed to shoot to get down. If you kept shooting 8 over the standard scratch you would get down to 9 eventually. If you were getting your first handicap you would need to shoot a total of 27 over for three rounds, this would give you a nine handicap.

There are three variables that affect a bowler's handicap: 1) Their current average, 2) the handicap basis, and 3) the percent of the difference between their average and the handicap basis that is used for the handicap. For example, a typical league may calculate handicap as 80% of 200, meaning that a bowler with a 150 average would have a 40-pin handicap (80% of the 50-pin difference between their 150 average and the 200 basis). With a 40-pin handicap, the highest handicap game this bowler could roll would be 340. Theoretically, you could have a 600 handicap game: A bowler with a 0 average bowling in a league with handicap based on 100% of 300 would get 300 pins of handicap, making a perfect game worth 600 pins. In reality, I don't think I've seen many handicap games over 330.
