DivotPro -World Golf Handicap

The steps in golf handicap calculations must be done in a specific order. Get it right by using DivotPro for all recognised formats of golf.

Analysing and understanding a golf handicap in the world handicap system can be difficult. This app makes it easy to know the worst case for your handicap index when dropping one of your best 8. Also it will tell you your target score to be better than that worst case by just one tenth! Even better what you need to score to reduce your handicap (even by one tenth).

How about knowing the anticap... the average of your worst 12 scores in your last 20. A consistent player will have an anticap closer to their handicap than an inconsistent player.

How about a handicap index calculated with scores from each month or season? It is good to know the months where you outperform your handicap. With less scores in your playing history you may find it more useful to look at the seasons. It is all here with much more.

Originally the app provided tools for calculating handicaps and that is all still here. Whatever the format, group or team size the handicaps are calculated correctly.

Use the first screen to (DivotPro Easy Calculator) calculate a handicap by just entering the relevant information. By setting up Venues the option to calculate handicaps for players using any combination of tees and playing any recognised scoring format opens up. You can either reuse the general players created by default or setup friends within the players list. Friends handicaps are likely to change from one day to the next but as DivotPro remembers their handicap only slight adjustments will be required each time you play.

WHS is slightly different in different countries. By choosing the correct governing body the correct rules will be applied.
