I was involved with Kat when she developed her program...I had been doing it similarly but not being a programmer I was pretty much doing it manually just using a spreadsheet. Her "program" made it much easier to use We've used it in New Haven since it's inception...I was able to contact Kat a few times after she kind of left WGT and tweak it some, but since then with the culmination of Tour Champion tiers etc. I've had to go back and manually "adjust" a couple of things but all in all, but I think it's still the best system out there. Handicaps are revised and adjusted monthly. And yes it does take a little more time to do, but we've used it for over 4 years now and no complaints.
At New Haven we run several what what we call "Major" tournaments each month, some single some unlimited, some just once a month and others based on points gathered for each quarter, or semi annually and even annually. All have both GROSS and NET results posted. Our player of the year tournament with a 5000 credit prize is only based on the NET results.
