What is the Bowling Handicap & How does it work?

Bowling handicap is a system used to adjust scores based on the bowler’s average performance, ensuring fair competition among players of varying skill levels.

The formula for calculating the bowling handicap is typically based on the difference between a standard score (usually 210) and the bowler’s average score over a set number of games. This difference is then multiplied by a factor, often 0.945.
