How is par score used in any variants of Stableford competition?

Question

I have seen some golf scoring systems that show the players' score in relation to par during Stableford competitions.

How is this calculated? The point of Stableford is to not worry about the number of strokes taken and just focus on the points. Is the par score in relation to the points scored or are the strokes still counted?

If the strokes are counted, how are blobs accounted for?

Karl Gjertsen · Answer

In a stableford match, a par (after handicap adjustment) would give you 2 points.

Therefore the par can be calculated as:

(number-of-holes-played x 2) - current-points
