The 28 and the 6 on one leaderboard.

Net or gross, in Stroke play, Stableford or Skins. Each player brings their handicap index; Cardie™ works out the playing handicap for the course and tees, so the 28 and the 6 can share a leaderboard.

Fair results for every handicap.

Each player's index

Kept from their own rounds.

Cardie™ works out every player's handicap index by the WHS rules from the rounds they save, and uses the one they had when they joined the event.

When you need to step in

  • A handicap for one event

    For a guest or a new player, set the index to use. It changes nothing outside the event.

  • Results stay as published

    Later handicap changes never rewrite a published event.

  • Gross is there too

    Any event can be scored gross instead.
