    dawesy You need to incorporate the "strokes received" formula into the overall points calculation. To calculate all in one formula is possible but the formula becomes quite complex. Better to add a row for each player where the points per hole are calculated and then added up in the end. You can alway hide these extra rows if you want.

     

    I took the liberty of changing some formats in your sheet 🙂

     

    Enjoy your golf!

dawesy How complicated? You asked for a formula that takes Par, Stroke Index and Playing HCP into account. It can not be more complicated than that. Can you elaborate a bit more with regard how you want to use this formula and why it doesn't work for you?

    How does it work when a player gets more than one shot a hole as some of our social players get up to 2 shots a hole on the index
    Thanks Ian

        Hi attached is a copy of the scorecard i wish to use as you see there are a number of players and i am not sure how to insert your formula the one you sent me works ok except for someone who doesn't get a shot on a particular hole i would be very appreciative if you could work out to the formula to work on my scorecard 

        Sincerly hoping  Ian
