While there are a range of different scoring formats that you can play socially, as a handicapping authority, we have made the decision to use stableford as the basis for our system.
This is to ensure a consistent and repeatable process can be put in place that reduces errors on our end when entering these scores.
This doesn't mean you can't mark strokes or play a match with your friend while on your social round; it just means that when you submit your round to Future Golf for handicap purposes, we need you to calculate your points.
