This is an amount of shots over par you can be without getting the 0.1 back on.
Depending on your handicap the buffer zone is larger or smaller. |
Exactly what we have here as well - just forgot about it. I think for higher hcp it's 4 points and for lower it's 2 points.
I suspect the European countries use R&A rules and US and Canada use USGA rules. Don't know about the rest of the world though.
