The Callaway Scoring System is applied as follows:

A player's handicap is determined after the round by combining a number of his worst individual holes during the first 16 holes... holes 17 and 18 may not be considered as worst holes. No hole may be scored at more than twice its par.

The table below shows the number of "worst holes" allowed by the player's gross score and the "handicap adjustment" to be made based on the gross score. For instance, a player's gross score for eighteen holes is 96. The table indicates that his handicap will be determined by the total of his three worst scores on holes one through sixteen, inclusive.

Thus, if the player has one 9, one 8, and a 7 his "handicap" totals 24. From this total a further plus or minus adjustment is made to the "handicap" according to the gross score factor at the bottom of the chart. In this example the player's 96 would result in a -2 adjustment to his handicap. Final Handicap = 22 (24 - 2)
