About Stableford Scoring
When you select the Stableford scoring method (Activities and App Settings, page61), points are awarded
based on the number of strokes taken relative to par. At the end of a round, the highest score wins. The device
awards points as specified by the United States Golf Association.
The scorecard for a Stableford scored game shows points instead of strokes.
