New handicap system now adjusts for the tee from which you play. Here is the calculation:
Index times slope divided by 113 plus (course rating minus par).
Course rating minus par will most often be a negative number for most of the courses we play, so your course handicap will usually be lower, sometimes substantially so. All players subject to the same system, though.
