Eclectic & Oder of Merit

The esteemed brain of Chris Gingell wishes to re-introduce The Eclectic Page .

Figuring An Eclectic Score

Eclectics work this way:

  • Each golfer plays the designated number of rounds.
  • All the monthly Stablefords (from April to October) played off the Yellow tees
  • Handicap Calculation is 50%
  • The highest stableford points scored on each hole is recorded for the eclectic, producing one 18-hole stableford score.

For example, let's say the eclectic is made up of three rounds. In the first round, the golfer scores a 6 for 1 point on the first hole; in the second round, he scores a 7  for 0 points on the same hole; and in the third round, he scores a 4 for 3 points. The stableford scores on the first hole is a 4 for 3 points, so 3 points is the golfer's eclectic, or ringer, score.


If the face in the mirror looks like this...

  • There is only one division for calculating the order of merit
  • The winner get 25 points, second 24, third 23 and this carries on to the 25th and below who get 1 point each. 
  • Zero points are awarded for a NR or a DQ.
