I would take the score...I mean you shot what you shot.  With that being said, I wouldn't brag about it really.  I mean, those are some pretty short distances.  But it took good shots to do what you did.  I think it's mainly that the title of the thread is more misleading than anything else.  I know, for me, when I come on here and see a thread title saying "I shot under par,"  I am expecting to see a score of 69 or so on a par 72 course.

Technically, under par is under par and is based on the scorecard of the course you are playing.  But under par at my local putt putt is not the same as under par and my local 18 hole course.  So, I have to disagree that "under par is under par." This is just my opinion.

Nope.  We know what par is.  To the OP-great round, but there is no such thing as a 175 or 180 yd par 4.  An executive course will have short par 4s, but they are usually 240, 250, 260, etc.  By my count you shot 2 over, which is still fantastic.

Even though it was a short course, I still had a lot of up and downs around the greens and only one three putt.   If I could do that on my 5500 yrd course I would be in good shape.

    • I'm seeing Ben Griffin and Lexi Thompson, so… … that feels like a stretch. Need at least three others, IMO, to count as a "handful" and you need some names for me to care more than "Ben Griffin."

    • On the subject of teenagers in professional tournaments there is a kid (Kris Kim) who is a member of my club in England and is at my old school. He’s 16. He’s playing in the pga tour event in Texas this week. Shot 69 yesterday for T31 and is -2 today through 5 holes. T55 and on the cut line. I really hope he makes the cut. Will be awesome.    His dad I believe is a teaching pro and his mum was on the LPGA Tour for a while. 
    • I have two contenders here that stick out to me: In second place, a putt to win the hole playing the 16th hole at Burnham and Berrow. Playing foursomes and the green has a big bank at the front then a flat bit and then it goes up again to a back shelf. My partner had hit our second shot onto the back shelf. We were 2up at the time and he was being a little wobbly so we didn’t want to lose the hole. Our oppo were conceded a 4 and my partner told me to just lag it down there nicely. 20 year old me meant to do that and failed. I hit it a bit hard and it was definitely going to clear the tier and probably run off the front of the green, but it hit the hole right in the middle and went in. My partner was very happy we won the hole but quite upset at my ability to follow instructions.    Number 2 is my most memorable. I was about 16 playing in the junior knockout at my club. We get to the 10th hole - long par 4 and index 2. I didn’t hit a very good drive, hit my second up about 60 yards short and pitched on to maybe 25 feet. I started walking and I got this feeling. I knew I was going to hole it. There was no doubt at all. I’ve never felt like that any other time in my life but this one putt was a certainty. It was February and the greens had been recently hollow tined so they were in awful shape. I didn’t even line it up. I hit my putt and it bumped and bounced all over the place until it went in the middle of the hole. If I could bottle up that feeling and sell it I’d be up there with Bezos and musk. Mind blowing!
