How this ranking is built
Slope rating measures how much harder a course plays for a bogey golfer than for a scratch golfer. Each course is ranked by the highest slope rating from its men's tees. Women's ratings are used only where a course publishes no men's rating. Where a course has both, its 18-hole rating is used rather than a nine-hole one. 44 of the 66 golf courses listed in Westchester County, New York have a slope rating on file, taken from each course's published scorecard.
