I think @mvmac should have to eagle all the par 5s instead...

Should make him eagle all the par 3s.

Three birdies today but all repeats.

Whatever, f***er. You have to do it every month. You're almost done with January, so congrats. 😄

I played 9 holes on my course today. Had 3 birdie chances inside of about 15 feet. Left two about a foot short in the jaws, blew the third one by without scaring the cup. Would have been nice to get one of those, especially with 2 of them being on pretty long par 3s.

I started birdie, birdie yesterday (I don't think it's ever happened to me before!) and had a round with 3 birdies last week, but both were on a different course than the one I selected for this... In time, maybe.

1. I see this:

2. I assume Mike made another 37 birdies.

3. I click the topic.

4. My suspicions are confirmed.

i am gonna take up this challenge.  So far only one round this year and no birdies.  Was a tournament that was wrecked by a lost ball on the fairway and that led to a stretch of triple double triple and ended my hopes.  Hoping to birdie at least one hole this month in one or max two more rounds

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Soft 500 golf ball

Another 2 rounds this weekend. 7 birdies but 3 of them where repeated.
It´s hard to catch @mvmac but I will do my best. 

Next week i will play a Mid Am in another course so.. nothing to report in the next 10 days.

That's fine, Mike, but you only have about 17 days left in your January Birdie Challenge. February will be a bitch if you can't get January, but at least you have 29 days this year. 😄

Man, not sure how I missed this topic when it was posted. Anywho-sounds like a fun challenge. With being a 18 capper I will make this a Par challenge (but will track birdies too if they happen!). My home course is a 27 hole course, so I choose my favorite Houston course that I play often as well....Memorial Park Golf Course. I have played once and made 7 pars! 11 more to go this year.

I think make it a par challenge until you beat that in March or April… then switch over to a birdie challenge. 🙂

There's no wrong way to do it, and there are no prizes, but you're selling yourself short if you think it'll be tough to achieve a par challenge, IMO.
