If you are talking gross score it is statistically impossible. Depending on course rating and slope a 18 handicap golfer probably averages around a 95. Keep in mind that the modern handicap system is based on your potential to score, not way you average score is. A golfer should only shoot his handicap one out of five rounds. According to Dean Knuth who created the course rating system someone who is a 18 handicap should only shoot 10 strokes better than their handicap 1 out of 37000 rounds. Each shot better goes up exponentially. For example nine strokes better is 1 in 3577 rounds. To shoot 23 strokes better would be greater than 1 in a billion rounds.
This is where someones handicap is less than 0. When you have your gross score you actually add your handicap on to calculate your nett score.
It depends how many shots under par you shot and the difficulty of the course. But it would be + something.
His handicap was scratch at the age of 13 so he was shooting well under par by that stage.
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.
If a golfer plays of plus 1 then he gets minus 1 shot under par. That means he must go round in 1 under par to play to his handicap.
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.
Depends what the standard scratch or slope rating is, could be +1 - +4.
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.
1 shot is hole in one 1 shot under par is birdie 2 shots under par is eagle 3 shots under par is albatross Over par is boogie.
one under par = eins unter par
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.
A score of one under par
