Here is a sample of the chart generated by the golf handicap program Tom developed
with plenty of help from his son Brad. The graph shows how his handicap varied
during his lifetime of playing golf. It shows the period from 1949 through 2002.
His best handicap was 14.7 in the late 1970s. You can find his handicap for the
day he played his best round in a battle for a league championship by finding
June 1971 along the bottom of the chart. It dropped below 16 after that round.
It began to increase in the mid 80's when he was in his 50's. It became difficult
for him to get below 100 after he reached his 70's. He was glad he could still
play.
