handicaps are usually cut in full strokes but nowadays some clubs/societies use computerised systems which say take into account the general scores for a competition.at the end of play all scores are fed in and the system makes the handicap modification which can sometimes lead to decimal points.
5.1 is respected as 5 yet 5.5 would be 6 so in all cases the handicap is rounded down if it is below the half point and rounded up if above respectively so 17.4 is 17 and 12.6 is 13.

A golf handicap is a numerical representation of a playerβs ability,
A golf index is the same thing as a golf handicap - it measures a golfer's ability.

Yes that is good. The lower the score the better. I cant even get below a positive 5!
