The problem with the old handicap system is that a golfer having one excellent round had their handicap slaughtered and they were stuck with that handicap for the rest of that year. At end of every golfing year every golfer’s handicap apart from Category 1 golfers had their handicap increased by 2 shots.
Who cares?
