    Hi

    I was wondering if your GUI handicap is valid abroad?

    For instance if you came across an open comp in the USA or UK etc is your Irish handicap permissible?

    I know they have different systems for calculating and adjusting handicaps abroad but just wondered if they allowed ours.

    Cheers

    Paul

    You definitely can in the UK. Have done it myself. I think your handicap is valid anywhere that uses the CONGU handicapping system.
