Hampshire Ladies Golf
Slope Rating
A Slope rating indicates the relative difficulty of a golf course for a bogey golfer compared to a scratch golfer.
This is calculated by measuring a course rating and a bogey rating.
- The course rating is the measure of the playing difficulty for a scratch golfer.
- A bogey rating is the measure of the playing difficulty for a bogey golfer (Handicap of 20 for men, 24 for women).
Ratings are not just measured on length, other factors such as recoverability from rough, green size and speed, elevation and penalty areas are taken into consideration.
The ratings are expressed as the number of strokes expected taken to one decimal place. The neutral slope rating is 113.
The Slope allows scores returned by all levels of handicap golfer to be adjusted as if the player has played a course of AVERAGE difficulty for THEIR Handicap level.
For example, if you play on a course that is challenging for your handicap level the system will recognise that and adjust your nett score to reflect that the course was difficult (and vice versa). This means that your score differential will always have been adjusted to reflect what your score would have been on a course of AVERAGE difficulty.
