How to Break 80 has a whole article about why you should get a HCP.

For us over here in Belgium it still is a weird concept that some people don't need to have a Handicap. In this small part of Europe you're not getting onto a course if you can't prove you have your 36 or less

Add to that that you need to be member of the Federation before you can get your Handicap and that you can only become member if you are member at some club.

The fact that there are almost no public courses where you can just pay and play really is holding back adoption of the sport here in Belgium.

I know plenty of people that would love to play once or twice a year but the fact that they have to be a member somehere before they can actually play is just too much of a hassle.
