| Hi,
Because of my PC holder status, i experienced some difficulties in "admitting" myself to local golf courses over the recent public holiday. Hence, i am endeavouring towards getting a hcp. Unfortunately, I am totally blur in this and I like to seek advice here.
1. I am not a member of any local club. Which Association or Society is recommended to join? I am looking at value-for-money when it comes to maintaining hcp and enjoying good golfing rates at local courses. Preferably, i do not have to participate monthly medal games as one of the obligations to stay as member. I am also looking for one that does not require me to "solicit" for proposer and seconder (who are already members of the Association/Society) in order to join (because none of my friends are members of local golf associations/societies).
2. What should I expect in a HCP test? How would I be tested and how shld I prepare for it?
3. Which avenue is one of the easiest route to getting a pass? Can PM me if it is sensitive to discuss here... I am not hoping to take a short-cut or a lazy way out but i'm afraid to "kena" super "niao" tester. It's just that I tend to "keel over" when under pressure/scruntiny. As I grow older, I seem to have less gumption...
Pardon my ignorance... And thanks for reading! | |

Options are My golf kaki, SSG, SGA, or AA Golf network
2. What should I expect in a HCP test? How would I be tested and how shld I prepare for it? There is an open book theory test and a courtesy round to test yr golf etiquette. If you've displayed proper golf etiquette and understanding of the golf rules, you should be fine even if you play 120+
