Home Course Ringer Score

How many of you have ever calculated your ringer score on your home course? Of course I mean converting the lowest score you have ever made on each hole to one 18 hole score. For instance over 36 years playing at MPCC here in Charlotte, I've made birdie on every hole, I've eagled three holes and have one hole-in-one. So my ringer score is -23 or 48 on our par 71 course. My guess is many of the better players on here might be in the low 40s or even the 30s. Another option might be to limit it to just this year. So far, my ringer score is -15 for 2020. I've birdied fourteen of our eighteen holes and made an eagle last Thursday (my first in nearly 20 years). I hope you all have fun with this exercise. Also, rest assured I'm not going to turn it around and calculate my "clunker" score which would probably be over 110.

Fun to do, but unless your hole-in-one was on a par 4 (in which case kudos on the albatross!), that makes 4 eagles or 4 strokes less than a birdie for every hole (which is 53 on a par 71 course), for a total of 49. Personally, I am in the mid-50s range as my eagles and one hole-in-one are all on different courses...

Congrats on getting in the forties club!

So basically my topic was merged with a post from eight years ago, correct?

Yes. That's how it should be.

My home course ringer score… Start at -18, and then I have eagles on… 3, 5, 7, 8, 12… so… -23.

Hell, even I shoot 59 or so...

You're right. My hole-in-one was a par three. I screwed up the math. I'll correct it.

Well, I couldn't edit my original post. Sorry.

My ringer score is maybe a 62(-9)? I know I’ve parted every hole at least once and I’ve never made an eagle, so it’s down to how many holes I can remember ever making birdie on.

I don't have a "home course", but if you are a member of Golf Canada and enter your scores hole-by-hole (for handicap calculations), they can produce an "ultimate scorecard" for each course you played (by year or all time) and also by tee box. Generates some interesting results.

In 25 years or a bit more, I've birdied every hole, had eagles on all four par-5s, eagled one (maybe two, not entirely sure) of the par-4s, and have one ace on a par-3.  I think that calculated to be -24.

Yes, I have a mental "ringer" score at Leslie Park.  16 birdies, an eagle (par 4) and an ace for -20, or 52.  It took me a fair amount of time to birdie every hole.  Then in the past couple years I holed out for eagle on #8 and aced #17 in 2018.  I am not long enough to reach the par 5's so any improvement will need another fortunate hole out.

Using only my home course over the years, I have No Albatross's, Eagled all par 5's, Eagled 3 times on par 3'  (2 on same hole)
Eagled 4 different par 4's (12 times on my home hole #7) and all holes have been Birdied.  (30 under par)

My chances of making an Albatross are slim, none and none, until I reach the ripe old age when I may play it forward...

I went back to look at my stats and in the last 8 years or so, I had managed to birdie every hole (which I wasn't sure of when I said my 50s above), and hole out a par 4, for a total of -19. If I remember correctly, I also had an eagle on one of the par 5s on that course before I started keeping the stats, so that's -20 or 52.

My best would be 21 better than my best which was 72 when I doubled the 18th hole.
