Callaway or Nike?

I'm just trying to figure out how much better you apparently played after your iron customization...

It means you played 4 qualifying rounds in the 2 weeks you dropped 3 on your HC.
How do your calculations work there? We use the 10 best of the last 20 rounds. Here in SA it means you shaved off about 7-8 shots per round!

That's a BIG improvement.

We have a handicap committee that determines the effect if you are more than a few shots beter than handicap. eg. if you had a 28 handicap and came home in say 74 the system knocks off approx. 0.1 per shot better therefore 2.8 reduction. This would have all members up in arms as for the rest of the season you win everything etc. They then decided on a commitee to look at larger improvements than a few shots and alter accordingly.
This was done because new members joined, went out for 3 cards and were assigned a handicap. Over the following weeks they would make dramatic improvements and unfairly win everything.
my game was hot & cold pre customising, One game go round in mid nineties and the next mid eighties whereas the customisation gave me consistency and from there I was high seventies to low eighties every round.
Due an op in 10 days then 3 months or so after I will discover if it was solely the clubs or also a head game.

That's too quick.
Here you have to play at least 10 games before being assigned a HC.

10 would seem better but a temp. handicap for your first season with reviews depending on progress may be wiser.
I was a high handicapper for years until I saw myself on video, realised I was over swinging & too fast. I had been told for years but had o see it before believing. Needless to say minor adjustments vastly improved my game.
A newcomer could play high handicap for moths, penny drops ad a dramatic improvement over nigh eg try not to hit the ball into the next county 🙂
