Handicalc™ WHS™ shot allowance calculator

Use the Handicalc™ calculator below to convert Handicap Index® into Course and Playing Handicaps for any supported course, tee and format. It applies WHS™-style calculations using Course Rating™, Slope Rating® and the allowance for your chosen format.

• Select the course and tees you are playing.
• Choose the format (for example singles, fourball or foursomes).
• Enter each player’s Handicap Index®.
• Review the Course and Playing Handicaps and strokes to give or receive.

For a deeper explanation of the calculations, see How it works and the format-specific allowances on the Formats page. Always follow your club’s Terms of Competition where they differ from typical WHS™ guidance.
