how do you mark your card for stableford golf before you start so pepole know what to score there self?

Question

i wish to mark the cards to show whos has one or two shots each hole.

Answer 1

if they're 18 handicap, they get 1 shot on every hole, if they are 12 handicap, they get 1 shot on the 12 holes with the lowest stroke index. if they're off 22 they get 2 shots on the lowest four stroke index holes and one on the rest etc etc.

Answer 2

just add your shots onto the par for the hole, creating a new par (normal bogey), you get two points for this par, 3 for birdie (normal par) and 1 for bogie (normal double bogey).

if your off 18, add a shot to every hole making a par 4 a par 5, etc.
remember, shots are allocated by the stroke index which will be on the card, no's 1 -18, 1 being the hardest and 18 easiest.

If your off 7 then you should change the par for holes with stroke index 1 - 7 by adding the extra shot, if your off 21 every hole gets an extra shot plus stroke index 1 - 3 get another, making par +2 shots on that hole's normal par, but still 2 points!

Answer 3

You score point by comparing your sore to par on each hole.
Eagle (-2) is Worth 5 points
Birdie (-1) is worth 2 points
Par (0) is Worth zero points
Bogey (+1) deduct 1 point
Double Bogey or worse (+2) deduct 2 points

Score only the point on the card and total all holes. The highest score wins.

There is the modified stableford system more aimed at the amateurs to emulate match play
Eagle (-2) is Worth 4 points
Birdie (-1) is worth 3 points
Par (0) is Worth 2 points
Bogey or worse (+1) is worth 1 points
Double Bogey or worse (+1) is Worth zero points

Other forms of stableford scoring exist

Answer 4

If the (Stableford/Matchplay) match is a club competition..then you dont need to mark (extra strokes/points) the card. You only need to record the scores. It is the responsibility of the organisers to create the result.

Answer 5

I circle the holes on the scorecard for the one stroke holes and box on the holes for two strokes for each player before play begins so they know on each hole what strokes are in play.

Answer 6

-Ball shot directly into the hole = Hole in one.
-Par is over two, and you take at least two shots under the par = Eagle.
-One shot under par = Birdie.
-Shoots at the number of par = Par.
-One over par = Boggy.
Two over par = Double Boggy.
Three over par = Triple Boggy.
