About Stableford Scoring
When you select the Stableford scoring method (Setting the
Scoring Method, page 6), 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.
