6. Handicap Allowances – Appendix F
Dec.6(a) Plus Handicaps – Strokes Conceded When Other Than Full Handicap Allowance Applied
When calculating the number of strokes a plus handicap player should give the course when other than full allowance is to be applied, the rounding of fractions of a stroke shall be carried out in the usual way by rounding 0.5 of a stroke upwards.
As a handicap of plus is mathematically a minus handicap (below zero), three quarters of a handicap of plus 2 equals –1.5 which rounds upwards to –1 stroke. That stroke should be conceded to the course at the hole allocated stroke index 18.
