Within the profiles page there are terms I do not understand. Can someone please define?
1 - Index
2- Ghin Id
Also what is the "enter stats" box for?

How's it going?
Index is your golf index. It's basically a measure of how good your game is. The lower the better..
Index is course independent, and is used to find your handicap on any particular course.
Ghin ID is the Id # you use for Ghin. Ghin is a service that allows you to enter your golf scores and keep your handicap. We also allow you to keep your handicap on golfstakes.
Enter stats, when turned on will let you enter your stats for the hole while your playing for stat tracking. # of Putts, What club you hit off the tee, how far it went, whether you hit the fairway or not, etc etc.
I'll try to make a post later with screenshots of the stats. Or if you turn it on and enter your scores on a hole by hole basis you can see what stats we catpure are.
Thanks for the question.

Thanks for the reply.
I have never really established a handicap (except for the game of golf itself) and was hoping to establish it this year through Golfstakes. Does the Index then come from your handicap?

Yes, if you use our handicapping then the index would come from our handicap of your previous games. If you go to your profile, then Edit your profile you will see a Handicap section. Set the dropdown from none to handicap and hit save.
We update the handicaps every week. So you won't immediately get a change in the index.
