Committee Reports:

By- Laws and Rules:  All proposed rule changes to Jerry and he will e-mail them to all Governors and Captains.

 

Scoring & Handicap: Jay Levine. Due to various concerns on the part of many participants in the league such as distance and the frequent change of handicaps for those near the 18.0 index, possibly creating a problem encouraging players to participate. A subcommittee of Jay, Mike Lapkin, and Chuck Milber met and have suggested changes for consideration. A list of the yardage, index and slope is attached as well as a proposed 3 Tee Option. A discussion ensued and will be revisited at a later meeting.

 

There was further discussion regarding changing the handicap determination from 4 of 8 to perhaps 5 of 10 or 6 of 12.
