With the aim of ensuring that all players are equipped with high quality and fully functional handicap cards, HNA will be issuing a brand-new card with a fresh look to all affiliated golfers during the course of June 2018. This new card will replace the grey SRIXON SAGA handicap card that is currently in circulation.

Importantly, there will be no cost to either the club or the player.

Here is a sneak preview of the newly-designed handicap card:

If you’re a golfer shooting in the high 80’s and 90’s, there’s a good chance that your consistency
in the 170 metre+ range needs improving. An improvement on longer Par-3’s, longer approach shots,
and Par-5 second shots removes a lot of big numbers off your scorecard.
 
 
We’ll assess the performance of consistency from 5 Iron through to your longest Fairway Wood,
measuring your distances, evaluating consistency, and identifying any gaps or opportunities
to improve your equipment or technique. 
 
45 Minutes that can improve your experience out on the course, reduce the number of
“misses” with your longer clubs, and lower your score.
 
 

 
 
If you’ve got youngsters learning the game, even young teenagers,
I know you can play together with different handicaps, so over a 500 metre hole one of you is getting extra strokes.
But how cool is it to tackle challenges you can both accomplish equally?
 
 
Why not play 9, and make every hole a Par 3? Tee off from where the shortest hitter in the group,
can make the green with a mid-Iron or less.
 
 
Golf can be a very challenging game.
But it’s really an opportunity to spend time together with friends or family,
in a healthy, outdoors environment.

In that context, it’s a game that you want each of you to enjoy.
So do your best to create challenges everyone can tackle.
 

Even amongst good golfers, 9-holes in an evening, where you make each hole a Par 3,
no longer than an Iron approach for the shortest hitte, is a great experience.

Playing competitive Par 3’s also tests your game management, more than you expect.
It really places a focus on your ball striking and scrambling.
If we can help
