Why not? If there is no error in picking up then the score is accurate no?

This rule apply's for HC purposes only during casual play. It does not apply during tournament play. The reason is they dont want a 5 HC to go out and have a few bad rounds that bring his HC up to a 10 and then have him play in a tournament with other 10 HC'ers and go out and completely destroy them because he is a true 5 HC player. Hope that makes sense.

Edit: So if you guys were playing a competetive rounds he would need to count every stroke during the course of play. Then when it came time to post in the computer he could shave his Equitable Strokes at that time but for your guy' competition he would have to count every on course stroke and he should not of been picking up his ball if you guys were playing for something.
