How are the Stableford points on my scorecard calculated?

Whatever individual-score format you play - Stroke, Stableford, Match, Skins, Nassau, BBB, Köpenhamnare - the app shows a Stableford-points column next to your gross score.

Those points are calculated using the round's Stableford allowance, which the host picks when creating the round:

  • Casual (100%) - default. Full Playing Handicap. Use this for friendly rounds with mates.
  • Competition (95%) - the WHS handicap-record allowance. Use this if you want the points column to match what would be reported to your home club for HCP-grundande purposes.

The same allowance drives the dots next to a player's name (extra strokes per hole) and the PH shown in the lobby, so dots, PH and points always agree.

The net column for the format you're actually playing (e.g. 100% for Match Play, 85% for Best Ball) is unaffected - it always uses that format's own WHS allowance.
