Normally you would play stableford against your personal par, so you would alter par according to your handicap. So if you had a 25 handicap you would add 1 to par on the 11 easiest holes and add 2 on the 7 hardest holes.

So a double bogey on the #1 handicap hole would score like a par and score two points, a par on the #18 handicap hole would score like a birdie and score three points, while a triple bogey on the same hole would score like a double and score zero.

See Rule 32.

Golf stableford calculation?

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.
