Golf Course Handicap

Golf Course Handicap helps you work out course and playing handicaps quickly using World Handicap System (WHS) rules — right on the course or before your round.

Whether you are planning a medal, stableford, match play, or a four-ball, the app walks you through a simple flow: choose a course, select a tee, enter a handicap index, and calculate.
