An equitable stroke control is the method that is used to determine how many strokes played on a hole based on your course handicap that will count towards your adjusted gross score.
The adjusted gross score is the total number of strokes played after permitting for equitable stroke control.
Net score is the adjusted gross score minus your personal course handicap and the sand bagger is the player who does not post all his best scores thus only leading to a greater handicap than one should have.
You can determine your golf handicap by playing at least 10 to 20 rounds at a sanctioned USGA course. You also have to follow the equitable stroke control rules and you are not allowed to post a score that is greater than a 10 on any hole.
This should help you understand the basics of handicap for golf, for further understanding play some golf at your local course and join as a member where the club will get you established with your handicap , no matter what your golf level is.
Good luck and Happy Golfing!
