How much will my golf handicap come down by if shoot one round that’s 6 shots under my handicap of 18?

I’ve pretty much been playing to my handicap apart from this. I want it to come down as much as possible but not sure how the calculation is done.

If your handicap is a genuine 18 given to you by your own club then you are in category 3 ….. (1 is scratch – 5; 2 is 6 -12; 3 is 13 – 20; 4 is 21 – 28). This means for every shot under the “Standard Scratch” score on the day you will be cut 0.3.
The SS can be different from the par for your course. This is usually due to weather conditions on the day, or average score if it is a competition.
So if the SS was the same as par, then for 6 under you will be cut 6 X 0.3 which is 1.8. If your handicap is dead on 18 it will reduce to 16.2.
However if your handicap was, say, 18.3 you will go down to 16.5 – which is rounded up to 17 for playing purpose. Complicated or what !!!

Any golfers out there? I’m looking for a golf handicap calculator software to help me track my rounds.?

I’ve looked online at most of the free resources and I got to say I wasn’t impressed. My friend mentioned a golf handicap calculator that he purchased online, I forget the name, but it was much more expensive that what I’m willing to pay.

Have you tried the one on Yahoo?

I am also more interested in what I did per round than just my handicap. I built a spreadsheet that tracks shots per hole. I used color conditonal formatting to see if I made par or was 1 stoke over. I have a page per course I play as the par per hole will be different. This tells me which hole I need to work on.

Does yahoos golf handicap calculator reflect a usga handicap at all? is the math the same???

Same formula. But don’t be cheap. Go to a local golf course and get an official one. It will be less than $30 / year.
