A golf score calculator converts gross score to score relative to par, applies handicap to calculate net score, and identifies the scoring term (birdie, bogey, eagle etc.).

ସୂତ୍ର

score_relative_to_par = total_strokes - course_par; handicap_index_adjusted_score = gross_score - (handicap_index × slope / 113)
strokes
Total strokes (strokes) — Actual shots taken for 18 holes
par
Course par (strokes) — Expected strokes for course (usually 71–72)
score_vs_par
Score vs par (strokes) — Strokes above/below par (negative = better)

  1. 1Score vs Par = Gross Score − Course Par
  2. 2Net Score = Gross Score − Handicap
  3. 3Handicap Differential = (Gross Score − Course Rating) × 113 ÷ Slope Rating
  4. 4Scoring terms: Eagle (−2), Birdie (−1), Par (0), Bogey (+1), Double Bogey (+2)

What is a good golf score?

Beginner: 100+. Intermediate: 85–95. Advanced: 75–85. Scratch golfers: ~72 (par). Varies by course difficulty.

What does a handicap mean?

Measure of skill. Scratch = 0 handicap (plays to par). 10 handicap = 10 shots above par on average.

How is handicap calculated?

From previous scores. Slope rating and course rating adjust for difficulty. Most courses: ~113 slope, 72 rating.
