USGA Announces National Revision Schedule Effective in 2012

West End, NC (6/17/09) - The USGA has decided  to implement a national revision schedule, meaning that every golf club will be required to have an update of the Handicap Index for each of its members effective the first and fifteenth day of every month effective January 1, 2012. There are many reasons for this change, the primary one being that having a standard schedule with revisions effective on the same dates every month enables clubs and players, especially those who are members of more than one association, to know when there is a “new” value available for a competition. The Carolinas Golf Association's current handicap revision schedule on the first and fifteenth day of every month already conforms with the new USGA policy.
