Q: To determine Handicap Indexes for our players, we average the lowest Handicap Index of the players in the last 12 months with their current Handicap Index. What is the best way to update Handicap Indexes using this method?

A: If you are maintaining your Handicap Indexes with GHIN, when updating handicap indexes, you can use the update method "Average of...". In your event or league, you can go to, Golfers > Access GHIN to Update Handicap Indexes, and select the Update Method, "Average Of...", then you can choose to average the lowest handicap index - 12 months and their current handicap index, (as shown below).
