What is Stableford? 

Instead of counting the total number of strokes taken, as in stroke play, Stableford involves scoring points based on the number of strokes taken at each hole.

 

Unlike traditional scoring methods, where the aim is to have the lowest score, under Stableford rules, the objective is to have the highest score. The number of points awarded on each hole is determined based on comparison of the number of strokes taken to par.

 

Once players have taken two strokes more than net par, they may abandon the hole and move on to the next, as it is then not possible to score any points on that hole.

 

Because of this, it is still possible to be competitive even allowing for a few bad holes. At the end of the round, the number of points scored on each hole is totaled to give a final score.

 

The winner of a Stableford competition is the player with the highest point total. It’s a great format for players of all abilities because no one can get “trapped” on a hole as you don’t have to finish any hole.  It also speeds up play for the same reason.
