Reply To: What to Learn from my DQ

[Bob Newman]

I always require my marker use the official scorecard. Transferring leads to mistakes. Only check the hole by hole score and match it to your strip you tear off from the official card of the opponent you are the marker. I draw a line thru the total and let the committee do the math. You are only responsible for the hole by hole score. I am also looking directly at my marker when doing this. It very easy to make unintentional mistakes so be very thorough on this. I also record my scores in sharpie so if someone wants to alter, it is difficult. All scores must be legible, if erasers are used just make sure it remains legible
