If I only complete 14 holes on an 18 hole course, I'm still allowed to post the score for handicap purposes per usga rules.
So, I'd post an X-[Score] where the score is Par + handicap strokes for the hole
Is there a way to denote that on stracka? That way when looking back, I know that I didn't actually finish the course, but rather used USGA-guided scoring?

This is straight from the USGA....

Posting a Score When a Complete Round is not Played

If 13 or more holes are played, the player must post an 18-hole score. If 7 to 12 holes are played, the player must post a nine-hole score. In either case, scores for unplayed holes must be recorded as par plus any handicap strokes that the player is entitled to receive on the unplayed holes.

So you need to look at the handicap of each hole, if you get a stroke (or two) then you need to add those strokes to the par of the hole.

Right, Brando, I'm aware of how to address incomplete scores.
The question I have is whether there is a way to differentiate complete rounds from incomplete ones when looking back at my Stracka score log.

Thanks!

P.S. I submitted all the required info for the LA Area golf club. Hopefully will hear back pretty soon..

Soon, we will add the ability to denote scores as incomplete.
