How to Change Your Home Course on GN21.
If you have been posting your scores into the EWGA handicap system, you may wonder why Sherwood shows up as your home course and not Crystal Springs Quarry? Here are the instructions to change your home course on GolfNet (GN21).
First, you have to have played and posted a score on the course that you want to be your home course so it will be in your database for selection. On your GN21 homepage there is a grey menu bar right under your name. Towards the right end of the menu bar, click on “Account”. From the pull down menu under “Edit Courses and Default Tee” select the course you want to be your new home course. Select the tees you play from. Click “Save Changes”. This course will now be your home course as shown on your handicap card.
