Handicap scoring helps level the playing field so players of all skill levels can compete together. Instead of comparing raw scores, your score is adjusted based on your recent rounds — giving everyone a fair shot, whether you’re brand new to disc golf or have been playing for years.

Your handicap is calculated starting your second week of play, using your own past scores. As you improve, your handicap adjusts with you. This keeps things fun, competitive, and encouraging — and rewards consistency and growth over time.

Most importantly: handicap scoring means you can show up, play your game, and feel good about competing — no pressure, no intimidation, just supportive competition.
