PostStats Stroke Handicap is closely related to the USGA Stroke Handicap™.  It includes the concept of Equitable Stroke Control, but not perfectly implemented.  For more information on ESC and the USGA Stroke Handicap™ system, visit the USGA™ site dedicated to this subject.

The highlighted rows are the rounds that count toward your handicap.  The number of rows is based on the USGA Stroke Handicap™ system and the number of normal rounds you have entered into PostStats.  Rounds that are completed with non-standard practices, like bonus holes and bonus points, are not included.
