Ykkösrinki Puts Upsi's Free Handicap System to the Test

What happens when you test Upsi handicap with your mates? You get one of the most entertaining rounds of the summer — and the perfect demo of a feature which is now free for everyone.

In their latest video, the Ykkösrinki crew — Timo, Toni, and Jani — headed to Myllymäki DiscGolfPark in Lappeenranta during the Linnoitus Open tournament weekend to play a full handicap round.

Timo started 13 throws up on Toni; Jani got a 4-throw cushion. Suddenly the strongest player isn’t the favourite — and every hole matters right down to the wire.

Last season the feature was reserved for Upsi Black subscribers. This season and going forward, you and your whole crew can play handicap round

Why it’s worth using:

• A fair match across any skill gap — Upsi adjusts every player’s score to their skill, so a beginner, a kid, a parent, or the local pro can play the same round and genuinely compete for the win.

• Fully automatic — no math, no negotiating

• Live-adjusted scores — handicap-adjusted standings update in real time as each hole is played, in the app, online, and in notifications, so the race stays clear to players and spectators alike.

• Made for mixed groups — friends, family, and partners of any level get a real game together, not a foregone conclusion.

• Every throw counts — even with a big rating gap, the round comes down to the wire, with genuine pressure and real comeback potential.

• Great solo, too — playing alone, the handicap turns any round into a personal challenge against your own level.

As Timo put it: “Now that it’s free, there’s no reason not to use Upsi with your friends on a round.“
