    If you check this option only golfers “marked to print” in the Handicap System will be transferred.

    Convert 18 to 9 hole handicap.
    If you mark this parameter, an eighteen hole handicap will be divided by 2 to create a nine hole handicap.

If a match is not found, the closest match is used. You can change the corresponding course\tee by clicking the drop box and selecting the course\tee.  If there is no corresponding course, select the "Rating\Slope" course (first course in the list). The transfer utility will then transfer the score with rating and slope information.
