GHIN

GHIN (Golf Handicap and Information Network) provides golfers and clubs with a mobile gateway to post rounds, calculate course-adjusted handicaps, and view handicap indexes maintained under USGA rules, making it easier to stay competition-ready and compliant. The app helps convert gross scores into adjusted differentials using course ratings and slope, and stores score histories for performance review, while many clubs use GHIN for event posting and membership management. Access to full features usually requires membership through a participating club or association; casual players can still benefit from calculation tools and score tracking. Because indexes feed into official competition eligibility, accurate posting and timely updates are important. Overall, GHIN is an essential tool for competitive golfers and club administrators.
