Your Adjusted Gross Score is your gross score, adjusted for ESC (Equitable Stroke Control), which limits your individual hole scores for unusually high scores, based on your playing handicap.
When the adjusted gross score is higher than the New Zealand Golf Course Rating, the handicap differential is a positive number.
Subtract the course rating from your adjusted gross score for the round. The course rating measures what the USGA believes a scratch golfer would be able to score during a normal round.
When a score is made under a system of ESC different from the USGA ESC system, that score must be adjusted to the USGA ESC system before it is entered as an adjusted gross score under the USGA Handicap System.
