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.
