The TDs determine the handicaps. We typically play races to 5, anyone who is half decent and can occasionally run out (500ish or more Fargo) will play with the lowest handicap (0), then around 400-500 get a handicap of 1 and sub 400s get 2. So a 700 vs 300 fargo would start at 0-2. Since we don't use Fargo, the figures are just estimates here, and are loosely judged relative to other players speed.It appears you play tournaments anyway. So how to that handicap you when you don't have a Fargo to go by?
I personally really enjoy this system of 500+ all having no handicaps, lets the improving 500-700s play semipros and pros with no handicap for good practice.
