SCORING
HANDICAPS
​
​
-
New Players: 1st year players will automatically be provided a starting handicap of "18", if unable to provide a valid GHIN or 18 Birdies handicap, that will be reviewed by the A.J.T. Committee.
-
All starting handicaps will have 1 Padded Score. This "fake" score will be rolled off the player's history after 3 rounds have been completed and new, real scores are played and entered into the system.
-
Padding will reduce the volatility a new player's handicap would change at the beginning of the season.
-
The Average Joe Tour reserves the right to adjust a players handicap at anytime, if deemed necessary.
​
-
Returning Players: Handicaps from 2025 Regular Season carry over.
​
Handicaps are calculated from players most recent six(6) AJT rounds, with the highest 33% of scores thrown out.
(Used to limit the number of bad rounds which influence the handicap calculation)
​
-
Max Handicap is 36​

​
​​FLIGHTS
Each Division will be divided into 2 Flights after the conclusion of Round 3.
-
