A golf handicap is a number that measures amateur golfer's playing ability.
Hope that helped.

No it doesn't help at all because I already assumed it was something to do with the ability of the player. What I'm asking is how is it calculated, what would be a good handicap to have, and how much time/effort would it take to reach certain handicaps?

basically after you have the number of shots you have played in one round then you take away your handicap to get your net score
