Equitable Stroke Control Chart

Equitable stroke control (ESC) is a downward adjustment of an individual hole score based on handicap index to ensure that one bad hole does not have a disproportionate effect on a golfers handicap.  This procedure is used for handicap score posting and is not to be used in any type of competition.

The following table (ESC Chart) shows the adjustment to be made for golfers of different abilities.
