Every golf course receives both a Course Rating™ and Slope Rating® for each set of tees that is rated. The rating established for the scratch golfer is known as the Course Rating. There is also a rating for the bogey player known as the Bogey Rating™ . This Bogey Rating is not normally published but is used to determine a Slope Rating. The Slope Rating is an evaluation of the relative difficulty of a course for players other than scratch. The Course and Slope ratings are then calculated and certified by the authorized golf associations before they are issued to the club.
