I know there are alot of people here who are rules experts and I need your help to settle an arguement from my round yesterday.
I understand when someone has an established they can only post up to a certain score (like a 6 on a par 3 etc.) but does this also come into play when they are actually scoring the round? Is a person who is a 15 handicap allowed to stop playing on a par 3 after they get to 6 and use the reasoning "that is all I can post"? It was my belief that you play the whole out and then let the computer sort it out when you post your score.
I appreciate al help on this and if I am correct I would appreciate knowing where I can find the answer so I can educate my friend.
