I tried doing a search in the forums on this and couldn't find anything. I am curious to know how many yards people in Masters are swimming a practice. I swim on average 3000-4000 yards a practice, 3 times a week.

Sorry, you are confusing swimming with golf, where the concept of a handicap actually matters. See in swimming, when you finish the race, you are either the fastest, and assuming you swam legally, the winner, or you are not. You don't get to get out and argue with the officials that the results need to be changed to reflect the conditions/excuses that you started training later in life, that you ate too much for breakfast, or that your pinky toe got a cramp.
Artie,
you are more confused.
It's not golf's handicap, it's knowing the conditions to deal with.
It's given A, how to get to B, around A?
For example, Artie, a truck driver driving on a slippery road minds about that road's condition.
