I am bowling in a centre where we use 200-average in all leagues with no % of the sum. EG: My current average is 179 so my handicap is 21.
The issue is that i am constantly on the wrong side of floggings against low average bowlers who only need to jag a few lucky strikes or spares to beat me as i tend to only be on average only 10-20 over if i am over average.
The problem i have is that the centre owner has set this system for all leagues. Which means that no league is allowed to change to a fairer 90% or 80% system. Who takes precedence, since its a sanctioned TBA league, shouldnt the league be able to decide as per the TBA rules on what the handicap system is and not the centre owner?
I am planning on taking it up with the centre owner as i feel the 100% system doesn't encourage low average bowlers to improve their games. Its much easier on a higher average to have a few unlucky splits and miss average or by just being human miss a spare occasionally. I feel that higher average bowlers are being penalised on this system, because we cant have a bad night or even frame.
