System 36 is a method of creating handicaps on the same day of an 18-hole tournament. Most frequently used in friendly tournaments where many of the players don't have official handicaps. The method used is as follows. At the end of play, a tally is made of each players round, counting up the number of holes scoring par or better, the number scoring a bogey and the number scoring double bogey or more. Then each par or better receives 2 points, each bogey receives 1 point and each double bogey or worse receives 0 points. The points are added up and subtracted from 36. This is the handicap for the player. For example, if you par every hole, you will receive a point total of 2 x 18 = 36. Subtracting from 36 gives you a handicap of 0. Another example. A golfer completed the following round:
Hole 1 - par
Hole 2 - bogey
Hole 3 - birdie
Hole 4 - triple bogey
Hole 5 - bogey
Hole 6 - bogey
Hole 7 - double bogey
Hole 8 - bogey
Hole 9 - par
Hole 10 - double bogey
Hole 11 - double bogey
Hole 12 - par
Hole 13 - bogey
Hole 14 - double bogey
Hole 15 - triple bogey
Hole 16 - par
Hole 17 - bogey
Hole 18 - par Total at end of round:
par or better = 6 x 2 = 12
bogeys = 6 x 1 = 6
double bogeys or worse = 6 x 0 = 0 Total points = 18 Handicap = 36 - 18 = 18 Gross = 91
Net = 73

How do you calculate modified system 36 point?

System 36 (For Open Amateur Competition when handicap is not available) During the game player carries no handicap. - For a par or better, the golfer will gets 2 points, - for a bogey will gets 1 point - No point for double bogey or worst. System 36 normally followed by either stroke play or stable ford with the 'handicap' obtained after the game using System 36 method. Example: If a golfer bogeys all the hole, his total point is 18 , so 36-18 = 18 his handicap is 18; if a golfer pars all the hole, his total is 36 thus 36-36 = 0....his handicap is 0

How do you calculate combination of system 36 and stableford in golf?

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.
