Just my humble opinion here, but it sounds to me like you're doing the right thing. You came in as a high handicapper, and are steadily bringing it down by consistently improving. Isn't the entire purpose of the handicap system to create balance and give everybody a reasonably equal footing?

Sandbaggers are people that game the system and intentionally keep their handicap high by either playing off or by only registering bad scores into the handicap system. Unethical at best.
+1, it sounds to me like you're going about it the right way and progressing in a route that has you winning but also getting better, that's an excellent combination. The "sandbaggers" at our course are guys who will post scores only if they're in the 90s so say they shoot a 80, they won't post it, but they shoot a 95 and they will post it.

The handicap system is a great way to even a playing field, only if the entire field uses their handicap they way it should, post everything!!!
