Included in my handicapp system, we have a max for biggest handicapp at +6 for the better players due to our local course being fairly easy. In general, handicapp leagues are for those players who are new to the sport or want to get that tournament feel for the first time. So, if there are people out there who are looking at making a living off the payouts, we spread the payout to 40 percent to discourage that. We are not in it for the money, but the experience and weekly gathering of old and new friends. We get a few complaints on the payouts and how others are "gaming" the system. But I feel if you dont like it, dont play it. We still get an average of 40 to 50 people a week, on a 9 hole course. And its also all year long due to some lights in the park and great cali weather.
