The Golf Handicap and Information Network (GHIN) is one of the world's largest handicap computation services. GHIN is provided through 71 state and regional golf associations to more than 12,400 clubs in 41 states comprising approximately 2 million golfers. The NHGA provides each member club with installation, training and tech support needed to run the GHIN Handicap Program. 

The NHGA does not charge its members clubs for junior golfers who maintain a handicap index with the GHIN program. The NHGA administers the GHIN system to over 100 member facilities throughout New Hampshire. In 2018, the NHGA will provide Handicap Indexes to more than 18,000 golfers on the GHIN system.
