It’s got me at a 2.4, and I’m more like a 6 right now. I think it overvalues your really good rounds
The formula is the formula.
It is the 8 best “differential” multiplied by a “fraction.”
So it generates an “index” that you apply to different courses and tees.
A 2.4 could be 6 from the tips if the course rating and slope dictate it.
Also, it only lets you go up 3, then soft cap. Up 5 in a year goes to hard cap.
Keeps people from putting in 20 95s a week before member guest to raise index.
I would think grint and 18 birdies would at least use the same formula as GHIN.

At rtj in capital hill that’s the white tees, which btw i haven’t had an eagle putt at yet. But 2 great shots I can get there and some of the par 4’s I’m still hitting driver and 5 wood.
That’s probably another aspect of breaking 80 people should consider. Play the correct tees for your game. Golf is a much more fun game when you do that. #6 on the judge I’d be hitting driver on a par 3 to an island green from the tips. Into the wind I wouldn’t even be able to reach the green on it or probably any of the par 3’s.
