For me it's a 76 (twice). Both times at this course http://www.crotchedmountain.net/ I used to work there and later was a member. First time was a while ago when I was in high school and funny enough I had a 77 that week too. Second time was I think a few years ago. Best nine hole score is a 34, on the back nine at the above course.

I scored my personal best of 81 about 10 years ago at Orgill Golf Course (Muni in Memphis). Incidentally, it was my first time to break 90! I finished (pitch-in) birdie, par, par, par. It was awesome.

Recent best - 82 at Galloway Golf Course (another city course in Memphis). I pared the first 7 holes, doubled the last two. Total of 10 pars.

Best 9 - Probably a 39 (4 over)

My Goal=more rounds in 80s!

73 at my par 72 home course. 35 on the front and 38 on the back. I needed to make a par on the last hole to shoot par, but I made bogey and had to scramble for it.

My lowest round was an 82 at Trosper here in Oklahoma. I was about a 15 handicap at the time, so that was a good 5 strokes better than usual. I had a really sweet birdie on hole #2, it's a par 3, and I hit a perfect 7 iron off the tee and went about 5 yards long, miraculously I had some backspin on it and it came back short to give me a 3 foot birdie putt. I was just really good off the tee that day, not typical for me at all on the course. I only had two birdies, I just parred a lot more holes than usual, and I had one save out of a sand trap that was picture perfect to save par on a par 5

My lowest round is 62 (-8) on a fairly easy golf course. I was 18 at the time, right before I started my college career. I still don't consider it my best round. That would be a 66(-6) at Alvamar Hills, in Lawrence, Kansas. I had two eagles, six birdies, and two three-putt bogies.

I don't play nearly as much as I use to, so the under par rounds are pretty rare now. I have more fun now helping my children learn this great game.

Low round was 75 (36-39) and my low nine was a 35 where I just caught fire on the back 9 (45-35). Someday soon I will shoot even par.

I did have a 27 last year on an all par 3 course too but I don't think that really counts.

Shot an 84 on a par 72. It was a time where everything just goes right. I know I can play that well, just consistency.

3 over on a par 3 course... for a 30
other than that.. 6 over has been my best for 9 holes.. 41 and 42.. and when i shoot 6 over for 9.. it's not a good day necessarily... if i start well i set expectations for myself to finish the round well and **** up... conversely i might start off terribly and finish strong to save myself from a 21893124 over.. i know i'm perfectly capable of shooting in the 70's

My best round was a 72 (par 71) from just over 6200 yards. The course rating was 71.1/125. It was a stellar day and I was playing to a 6 at the time.

Hit it today and posted in that thread. 82 for 18 holes. At Upland Hills Country Club in Upland, CA - Blue tees, 68.6/121, 5902 yds. Course is narrow (lined by mature tress), but not too difficult. Hitting straight is a good thing here. Had 2 putts lip out, 3 putted 2x, and hit water once, or could have been in the 70's! Birdied 18th. First time I've had everything working reasonably well for an entire 18. No blow-ups. Handicap is dropping fast.

My best round is 82 on the par 72 Loughgall golf course in Armagh N.Ireland. Thats not alot to brag about but its not bad for my handicap ( which is a guess because I'm not a club member, so I don't have a G.U.I handicap.). Course measures 5917 yards.

My lowest two rounds were both 112 and I shot them last week.

I'll describe the better round of the two.

It was on my local course, Ballymena Golf Club, a very short course with a par of only 68. I am only learning, so most of my tee shots were with a 3 iron and some with an 18* rescue club. My tee shots weren't clicking at all, but my mid irons were decent and my short game has improved a lot. I was generally three putting, which is the main problem in my game but I'm only a beginner so I'll hopefully improve.

I am a 14 handicap. My best round is an 80. I just can't get over that hump.
Putting is killing me, I can hit fairways and greens all day but I will always have 2 or 3 lovely 3 putts. Its driving me crazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't see many people in my "leauge"...

108 on a 70.3 rating/124 slope. 2 Birdies, 0 Pars, 5 Bogeys, 6 Doubles, 1 Triple, 2 Four over, 2 Five over...

I kinda met my goals for the summer to consistently shoot around 110, now this winter I hope to break 100 as I've seen some vast improvments over the last month or so.
I'm only at 13 clubs in the bag, what do you reccomend as a 14th? My foot wedge?

My best for 18 holes is a 68 (-4), with 5 birdies and 1 bogey.

ok, a couple of changes.

My lowest tournament round is now 69 (-3) I got it a couple of weeks ago at a club championship. That round also changed my best 9 score, I shot 32 (-4) on the front with 5 birdies and 1 bogey.

    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
    • Right. The difference between being 120 out and 70 out for me (this is the important part) is negligible and not worth putting other risks into play off the tee.   Ok the argument against driver is that my shot cone is comically large. It puts every possible outcome into play. You can't see the green from the tee so there's a good chance I'd have to wait for it to clear which would slow down play. That's the third tee right in the middle of the firing range there. I really don't want to wait just to hit a terrible shot and I especially don't want to injure somebody. Yea I have no problem playing out of the rough short of the bunker if I'm just going to lay up short of the bunker, but I absolutely need to avoid flaring it right into the penalty area if I'm going to be laying up in the first place. As a general strategy I understand where you're coming from. But since we're specifically talking about me (this is a shot I'm going to have to hit on Saturday), I think the cost is fairly marginal. I hit the ball 8' closer on average from 50-100 than I do from 100-150 from the fairway and rough and the green success % difference is 4%. Bunker might as well be a penalty drop. Based on the data,  Here's my SG:A data compared to a 10: I honestly don't know how to use SG for decision making. That's why I was mostly looking at proximity to hole and green success rate for comparison. I mostly use SG as a way to track my progress. All good. Like I said, I appreciate the discussion. It makes me think. If I didn't want to see alternative/opposing viewpoints to my own I just wouldn't post anything. You should post it! In your own swing thread, of course. It's been a fun exercise.
    • Played my first 2024 round at Pierce Lake. Boomed my first drive down #10 fairway, then slowly slipped into mediocrity. 83 (69.6/131). The high point was going 2 of 4 on sand saves. My sand game is pretty marginal but today I must have discovered the secret for a couple hours.
    • day 34. Technique practice. Became too quick and outcome oriented. need to slow down and work on technique again. 
    • Day 534, April 18, 2024 Practice before lessons today. Priority piece. No sim this time. 🙂
