PasturePool Golf Now Available on iTunes - 8/19/08

PasturePool Golf software is now available on iTunes. Our software version integrates both offline and online capabilities allowing you to score rounds regardless of cell or wireless coverage. Spend more time playing golf!

Handicap Index(N) - 8/10/08

For those golfers posting 9 hole rounds, PasturePool now provides a Handicap Index(N). This is currently available on our WebSite version only.

Golf clubs compute a Handicap Index (N) by applying nine-hole adjusted gross scores to the USGA Course Rating and Slope Rating of the nine holes played to determine Handicap Differentials.

Note: Players with a Handicap Index (N) who play an 18-hole round, must post two nine-hole scores to their scoring record (N).

Example: For a nine-hole adjusted gross score of 45 with a nine-hole USGA Course Rating of 36.2 and a Slope Rating of 121, the nine-hole Handicap Differential is (45 - 36.2) x 113 / 121 = 8.2. If the average of the best ten nine-hole Handicap Differentials is 8.9, then the Handicap Index (N) is 8.9 x .96 = 8.5. It is posted as "8.5N.

Charting Bug Fixed - 7/20/08

We recently fixed a sorting issue with our charts. Prior to the fix, the chart sort order did not take into account users who have scored rounds across multiple years so the order appeared random. This issue is now resolved and displays the order properly.
