Course update

Hilikus

Hi, 

When can I expect an update to my home golf course, I've submitted several forms, the course went through several modifications that change the overall slope and hole hdc. Because of this my index in Garmin is being incorrectly calculated.

    Thank you very much JH for looking in. The course is Club de Golf la Dehesa. It is located in Santiago, in Chile. 

    Thank you

    It does look like the last update for this course was in April of this year. I will be sending you an email to grab more specific details about your course report submission.

    Thank you, JH and PW, for looking into this.

    I have already received the email from Garmin and replied with a detailed explanation of the situation and the information needed to update the course.

    In short, Club de Golf La Dehesa has undergone significant changes to its tees, course length, Slope Ratings and hole Handicap Indexes. The Blue tees were moved substantially farther back, new Silver/Gray tees were introduced in approximately the former Blue-tee locations, and the hole Handicap Indexes have also changed.

    These changes are significant enough that Garmin's current course data is no longer representative of the actual course, which is affecting my handicap calculation and golf statistics.

    I have also provided Garmin with the current official scorecard and pointed them to the Federación Chilena de Golf, where the current course information can be independently verified.

    Hopefully the Golf Course database team can review the information and update the course accordingly. Thanks again for taking the time to look into it.
