Handicapping - FAQ
INACTIVE SEASON
Once again we’ve begun our “Inactive Season” for the Toledo
District Golf Association. This means that any scores made at
courses within our district cannot be entered for handicap
revision purposes – your computers at your club should not
accept these scores nor should you be able to post them from a
local course through ghin.com. However, it is still your
responsibility to enter scores from any other area of the
country that currently is in their “Active Season” – areas like
Florida, California, Arizona, and the like maintain an Active
Season all year long. If you travel to these areas and play some
of their courses, USGA requires that these scores be posted for
handicap purposes. We certainly hope there are many days during
our Inactive Season that we are still able to golf, we just
can’t post the scores – see you next spring!
