Example:
Starting Handicap Index: 22.6
Ending Handicap Index: 17.4
Value A: 22.6 + 12 = 34.6
Value B: 17.4 + 12 = 29.4
A / B: 34.6 / 29.4 = 1.177
Improvement Factor:  1.177
Note: Add 6* instead of 12 in the case of a nine-hole Handicap Index (N).
*The numbers 6 and 12 have been determined by the USGA as equitable in gauging the improvement of players encompassing the entire spectrum of 
handicaps. For example, it is relatively the same improvement factor to go from a 20.0 to a 10.0 Handicap Index (improvement factor of 1.454) as it is to 
go from a 5.0 to a scratch, or zero Handicap Index (improvement factor of 1.416), yet the change in Handicap Index is "10" (20 - 10) versus "5" (5 - 0) 
strokes. The numbers of 6 and 12 take into consideration the level of a player's improvement rather than the net change in Handicap Index.
Please note: This ranking is for guidance only and should be carefully reviewed by the handicap committee and modified if necessary.  There are many 
special situations which cannot be taken into account by the formula alone, especially if the club joined GHIN for the first time this year.  The committee 
always has final authority in selecting their most improved player.
