Stableford competitions use a points system to give a points value on each hole, which is then totalled at the end. Firstly a player will be given shots according to their handicap, say their handicap is 9 they will get shots on the holes with stroke index 1-9, on these holes they will get one shot added to par to get the fixed score, points are worked out as follows, 2 or more over fixed score- 0 points, 1 over fixed score- 1 point, fixed score- 2, 1 under fixed score- 3 points, 2 under fixed score- 4 points, 3 under fixed score- 5 and so on. 36 points is level with your handicap. The total is then calculated, and the person with the most points wins.
yes
It is STABLEFORD and it is a scoring system, whereby you get 1 point for a bogey, 2 for a par, and 3 for a Birdie, 4 for an Eagle.
If it is stableford or stroke and two scores are tied then yes, it does go by back 9, then back 6, back 3, back 2 and back 1. (net scores of course)
The Stableford competition is a popular golf game played in the UK with different rules than traditional golf. Even though two players can end up with the same score at the end of 18 holes, there are many penalties that can be given for various holes and number of strokes, that can change the outcome.
Do you mean a 36 handicap? If so you would get 2 extra points per hole. Playing off scratch in a Stableford Competition you would get two points per hole if you completed the hole in par, one over par you would get 1 point. So a player with a 36 handicap would get four points for each hole you completed in par. For a Bogey on any hole you would get 3 points and for a Birdie you would get 5 points. The Rules on Stableford are readily available from your Golf Club Professional.
These competitions run throughout the year from April â?? October in the UK. The format alternates between Stroke play and Stableford scoring.
If all holes are completed and the scores recorded then the gross stroke score would be taken as the record, not as points.
Unfortunately not, you keep going until you get it in the hole. Unless you are playing a stableford competition where if you are two shots over your allowance you should pick up as you would receive no points.
If you are talking about Stableford, then yes you may have a NR (no returned score) on as many holes as you like. In stroke play if you have a NR your gross score will be NR and nothing will come of this.

If you played off the medal tees and the course gave you a C.S.S for that particular day then you would need to return them as away scores. However if it was merely general play you would not.
Stableford is a method of scoring in golf where points are allocated to the player's net score. 1 point for a bogey, 2 points for Par, 3 points for a Birdie and 4 points for an Eagle. Eg. On a Par 4 hole an 18 handicapper gets one stroke - So if that golfer takes 4 strokes on the hole ( a gross par) he ends up with 4 strokes minus the handicap of 1 for a net 3 strokes (birdie) - he is given a net birdie and so receives 3 points for that hole. The highest number of points wins the competition. If it is a Medley then both Men and Women can compete in the round.
