    I would imagine you would need to have a gui card/number to enter any comps. Not sure if that has changed since the introduction of the World Handicap system

    I don't know if it's possible but worth exploring.

    You could join a club here as a distance or overseas member. If that gives you a gui number then your home handicap secretary might be able to pass on your whs index info to the Irish club secretary who may be able to register it against your gui profile.

    Even if this is possible I would imagine the potential issues arrive in managing two indexes. Say you shoot the lights out or have awful rounds in Ireland. Shouldn't those rounds affect your home country whs index or how is that accounted for?

    There are a couple of hc secretaries on boards so perhaps they've seen this issue already and can give you the answer.
