So Gentleman a complex format on a cold and damp day.
Why am I saying the format is complex the scoring is easy but the handicapping is not.

What should happen is as follow
60% of the playing handicap of the lower handicapped player and 40% of the higher handicapped player should be used and the competition handicap calculated to the decimal place and added together.
So for players with handicaps of 16 and 23 the calculation should be as follows

(16x0.6) + (23x0.4)  that is 9.6 + 9.2 giving a competition handicap of 18.8 to be deducted from the gross score.

HOWEVER
That wasn't what the sign up sheet said and after thinking about it I have decided that we must follow what the sign up sheet says

So Winners today were Peter Burdon and Dave Williams with 67 nett
Runners up (on countback) were Robin Day and Brian Floyd on 69 nett

And I'm glad I dont need to check cards with those complex rules everyday
