Western Golf Association to adopt new handicap system
Western Golf officials announced a new handicap system to rate players this year. Secretary R. R. Stone called for reports on low mark players and asked club handicap committees to compare their top players with renowned open tournament golfers. If a club member is five strokes worse than a well known golfer, the player could receive a five stroke adjustment. The aim is to simplify initial matchups when new players compete and ensure fair handicapping across clubs.
