I have shot even for 9 holes, or even one over for 9 holes, but I want to see who all has shot -1 or better for 18 holes? What was your handicap when you did it? How hard was it?

I shot a 2 under 34 on the front nine once in high school. Then a 42 on the back. I know you said for 18 holes, but you may have few responses!

So my best 9 was 2 under. I was about the same HC as I am now.

I shot my best 9 when I shot my 77 2 weeks ago. 41 on the front, 36 on the back. I would be weak in the knees on the 18t hole if I knew my putt was for a -1.

Shot a -7, 65 a couple years ago for my only round sub 70 at Kearney Hill Golf Links. They've held Champions Tour, US Public Links (mens and womens) and a handful of other events there so it's no par 3 course.

Had more 70 and 71's than I can count. It wasn't very hard, but "hard" is different for different people. If I'm hitting the ball well, I'm upset if I'm not under par.

My goal is to get that good one day. Its taken me 10 months to go from a 19 to a 9, but I think it is going to take me a little longer to get to a 3.

I have shot level par for 9 holes on a medium difficulty course. This was when I felt I had a 14 handicap.

In any low rounds I've accomplised I often find that not bogeying holes has been far more relevant than birdies. I've never had an eagle and never had more than two birdies in a round.

So under par even for 9 holes would be very unlikely in my case.

shot a 34 (-1) a few weeks back on a easier course IMO... Now when I go out there I attack the course and if im not around even par im upset with the round. My highest round there the past few weeks was my 38(3+) today and that was because I got frustrated at the group in front of me not letting me play through and mentally lost focus... Was even after 5, Bogeyed 6 and doubled 7.

Best score on a championship style course from longest tees was a 79.... 43 on back which I played first and a 36 on the front. Ive scored under 80 a few more times but at easier courses...

I wont talk about my bad rounds however I have yet to have one bad blow up round this season

Shot -2, 70 last Friday at Harding Park for my first time ever breaking par for 18. Even though it was from the white tees, bout 6400 yrds, Shot 37 on the front and 33 on the back. Best nine hole score before that was in a junior tournament that was probably 8 years ago, went 42 on the front, -4, 32 on the back.
