Before you play:

　　1. Know your USGA Handicap Index

　　2. Check the Course Handicap Table for the right tees to determine the number of stokes you’ll receive.

　　3. Determine how many stokes you get for the game you are playing. Apply the handicap allowance for the type of game you are playing.

　　As you play:

　　4. Write your hole-by-hole scores on the scorecard.

　　After you play:

　　5. Adjust your score properly for handicap purposes.

　　6. Submit your scorecards to your club. If you are playing at another club, which uses the same handicap system, or if the away game is played at a club not with the system, you must hand it in to your home club.

　　7. At the end of the month, you will receive an updated index label to replace your old one.
