Query re: Handicaps and Golfnet

    I recently had a good score in an open competition away from my home club. I was five strokes better than the CSS which I assume will reduce my handicap by 1.5 (16 hc).

    Even though my handicap will be automatically adjusted on the golfnet system, am I still required to formally notify my club as per CONGU regulations?

    Thanks in advance.

    Can anyone give a quick answer on this?

    Quick answer is yes... you should inform your club. There is usually a sheet on the board for away scores.
    However, in most cases the score gets returned electronically and adjustments made automatically but it's good for cross-checking purposes.

    Regardless, you are obliged to cut yourself before you play again... you can't be disqualified for playing off a (wrong) lower handicap than you're entitled to.
