Post your adjusted ESC score
5.
• Post your Equitable Stroke Control
(ESC) adjusted score on GHIN
Things to remember when posting your score on GHIN!
Example of ESC: A Player with a Handicap of 23 with a score of 9 on a hole
Your Scorecard:
• For all matches/tournament
purposes, you must count all strokes
on every hole
• On your Scorecard you would enter
the actual score for the hole played,
in this example, 9
• If you had a round of 98, that would
be recorded for the
match/tournament
Posting your Adjusted Score on GHIN:
• You must post your ESC adjusted
score on GHIN
• In this example, you would post a
score of 8, and not 9, for the hole in
question
• So your adjusted score would be 97
to post on GHIN
Equitable Stroke Control (ESC)

9 or less
