As many as you want until the ball is in the hole as long as you don't hold up the play of the Golf course. No matter how bad you hit the ball always watch where it goes and you will not have a problem keeping up with the group in front of you. If you are playing Stableford, you can pick up when 2 over net par because your score is already down to zero. With a handicap of 24 this will be 4 over the real par for most holes. (3 over par for some, depending on Scratch Index) For handicap purposes, the same applies, so you might as well pick up after 4 over par. If it's a medal competition, keep going. Every stroke counts.

How do you convert stableford points to a stroke score?
36 points is level your handicap. So you can simply add your handicap to par for the course, then if you have more than 36 points, take the amount you are over 36 points by and take this away from the total of par for the course plus your handicap. And if you have less than 36 points you add how many short you are to the total of par for the course and your handicap. However this will not work if you have had a hole where you were more than 2 shots over your allowance.
