How Handicaps Work, FlingGolf vs Golfers, Showtime's Spotlight, and Rules Tweaks

Welcome back to FlingGolf Theory with Showtime! In Episode 8, we’re tackling some of the biggest structural and strategic debates in the sport: how we calculate handicaps, play against golfers, and new rule change ideas. In this episode: 1:10: Intro: Austin's recovery from injury and the Mason Dixon Club Series. 10:10: The Handicap Translation Problem: We break down how traditional golf generates handicaps and why those systems don't translate 1:1 to FlingGolf. 14:45: FlingGolf vs. Golfers: Why FlingGolfers facing traditional golfers head-to-head isn't a fair fight, given how uniquely our equipment and mechanics interact with the course vs the traditional game. 29:15: Showtime’s Spotlight: This week, we shine the spotlight on Jonathan Bellingham AKA "AquaJon", highlighting his impact with FlingForAll and so many other contributions to the sport. 32:29: Tim's Tweaks (New Segment!): In our brand-new segment, Tim brings forward a fresh potential rule change to spark debate. Our inaugural tweak? Introducing a dedicated putter to FlingGolf.Watch us on YouTube
