New Peoria scoring
Separate gross strokes from capped hidden-hole strokes
Set the course and hidden holes
Enter 18 pars and scores, then check the organizer’s hidden holes. Verify the default selection against the event’s actual rules.
Apply the event’s caps
Set handicap cap and hidden-hole double-par limit. Double-par affects the hidden-score calculation, while gross remains unchanged.
Check the net calculation
Hidden strokes are scaled by course par divided by hidden par, then adjusted by 0.8. Net is gross minus the final handicap.
