Stableford Handicap Scoring

[aaa]

It may be a disincentive but for the majority of players (18+) the punishment (adjustment) is out of proportion to the crime (any possible advantage). I don't think no score for OB on a tight par 3 will find many takers on this side of the pond.

As you will know, the idea of a common handicap system is already being investigated.

However, this is the only major sticking point I have so far - except the possibility of bifurcation.
