Every swing you take counts as a stroke in your score, even if you miss the ball. On this particular score card the starting points are BLUE, WHITE AND RED, the blue being the longest yardage and the red being the shortest. The handicap is the difficulty rating of the hole, #1 is the toughest hole and #18 is the easiest hole. The green diagrams on the top of the scorecard show you what each hole looks like. At the end of your round, add up your total strokes. The lower your score the better!
