Copper Creek seems to have the lowest Course Rating and Slope that I've ever seen.

It is a short but tight par 69 at altitude. Was a par 70 but they converted the 10th hole to a 3 par after too many people were hitting the houses with their tee shots. It has some good holes like the 218 yard #3, 441 #4, 264 #9, 192 #10, 553 #11, 438 #16 & 415 #18, so it is not a push over for those that spray the ball.

Yeah, I just looked at the layout on my gps app. It's extremely short (5100 yards or something) but looks tight enough to warrant a higher slope rating I would guess.

5880 from the tips, 5517 from the blue and 4972 from the whites. It is at altitude, but there are 6 par 3s, so not as short as some might think just looking at the yardage. There are hazards/LB or OB on just about every hole, sometimes on both sides. Guys who are consistently accurate can shoot career bests, but wild hitters might have to buy more balls at the turn. I think the course record is a 62.

My lowest is a 70. It was when I just finished up high school and my swing was in great form. I was playing at my local track which I knew really well and started off on fire. I shot something ridiculous on the front nine, I think it was a 33 or something in that ballpark. I let it go a little bit on the back because I distinctly remember bogeying the last 3 holes of the home stretch- I think I got a little chubby on the 16th when I started counting strokes before the round was over. I wish I would've ended it with a spectacular putt like you see on tour but the three-putt bogey is was sealed the deal on my best-ever round. Someday I'll break 70, I just hope that day comes sooner than later.

Lowest score and over par: 72 (1 over)  September 2013 at Center Square Golf club in PA. Chipped in from just off the green for an eagle on a par 5 and had 1 birdie. Otherwise it was just steady golf of 4 bogeys and 12 pars. I lipped out a mid-length putt on 18 for the even par round but was just fine with 1 over.

Beat that on Friday July 17th, 2015. 1 under 69 at Bella Vista golf course in Gilbertsville, PA. My first time ever breaking 70 and/or shooting under par. It was from the white tee's but that is fine with me. I end up playing the whichever tee's the people I get paired up with are playing (unless they are playing up further than the 'mens' tee's).

I countered that with a crowd pleasing 90 when meeting up with a guy I have known through work for 10'ish years now. Never met him and really looked forward to it. Unfortunately my game got left behind. It might have had something to do with playing 5.5 rounds in 7 days. Oh well, I still had a great time and today starts a new week.

That's a fun course; my high school golf coach works/worked there. 79 for me. Only time I've broken 80 so far, but I've gotten close a few times this year.

Great post !! I started golfing out of high school, i was never interested until after a friend asked me to join! Its been 6 years as a weekend golfer and im starting to shoot excellent/honest scores. My first year golfing was 90-100+. Second and third year i started to improve,shooting in the 80s occasionally.i was stuck in the 80s for a couples years but it wasnt untill this year when i started hitting excellent scores . My average round in 2015 is 78. I have gotten as low as 71 at riverside golf course in fenton mo.

I've shot 74 four times, but only once on a Par 72 (Man O'War, Myrtle Beach).

I think my best round ever, however, was a 78 from the tips at Butlers Lakeside (Elizabeth PA) when I had a 9 on a Par 4, and an 8 on a Par 5.  Shot -2 on the other 16 holes.

73 (CR72.5/134) in competition

69 (CR72,3/139) casual round

My best ever round is a 70 (par 72) where i caught some unbelievable bad breaks on 14,15 and a silly 3putt on 16 to make 3 bogeys and finish par par on 17 and 18

Competition: 79 Casual: 78 Hardly remember the casual round, but the competition round was my first time breaking 80. I've only done it 3 times in my life. It was about 40 years ago when I was about a 14 hdcp. I had no idea I was playing so well until the guy keeping score says at the turn "Damn, you parred the front nine" My game came back and I shot 43 on the back for 79. I've always wondered how long it would have taken to come out of my par shooting trance if he hadn't told me I parred the front. I didn't even realize it......one birdie, one bogey, and seven pars. Now days, I'm trying to stay under 100.

Yesterday at my club I played 9 holes with an older member from the forward tees...32.4/107 and shot a 39!

The differential equals a 42 from the middle tees I usually play....but it sure sounds and feels better!

I liked reading through this thread. Very cool to see peoples stories. Best casual round was a 67 on a 72, either last summer or two summers ago. Was a pretty short easy course. I play better in tournaments. More focused or something. Best tournament round?... Score wise I've shot 68 (-4) twice. But I wouldn't consider those my best rounds. I shot a -2 70 on a 75.8/149 7350 yard course in a professional event last year and I was tied 15th after the first day. That was a +4.2 differential which is probably my lowest ever. Don't ask what happened on day 2 of the tourney ;)

I can only really count my best front 9's, which area quite a few 41's. I usually play late on an evening so hardly warm up and cock up the first hole and usually end up rushing the last 4-5 holes if I want to complete the 18 (which is never good for me). This usually inflates my 18 hole scores a fair bit. I've had a few 55's from 12 and then been gutted I didn't have time to do the 18 :( Think my best 18 is an 87, I know I'm better than that.

I think I'll get a 39 for 9 holes before the end of August, which is another step on my way to breaking 80.

    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.

    • Cool here's my tweak, "If a player’s ball lies in the general area and there is interference from exposed tree roots or exposed rocks that are in the fairway or 1 club length from the fairway the tree roots and exposed rocks are treated as ground under repair. The player may take free relief under Rule 16.1b.[But relief is not allowed if the tree roots only interfere with the player’s stance.]
    • I would never do the extended warranty on the $50 slow cooker.  I also routinely reject the extended service plans on those toys we buy for the grand-kids.  I do consider them on higher cost items and will be more likely to get one if the product has a lot of "Electronic Tech" that is often the problem longer-term.  I also consider my intended length of ownership & usage.  If my thought is it would get replaced in 2-3 years then why bother but if I hope to use it for 10 years then more likely to get the extension. I did buy out a lease about a year ago.  Just prior to the lease end date the tablet locked up and would not function.  I got it repaired under the initial warranty and would not have bought it out if they had not been able to fix it since IMO once electronic issues start in a car they can be hard to track down & fix.  They did fix it but when I bought out the lease I paid up for the extended warranty the would cover electronic failures because my intent is to keep that car for another 8-10 years and I just do not trust the electronics to last.  Last week the touch screen went black and was unresponsive.  It reset on the 2nd time I restarted the car but that is exactly how the last malfunction started.  I fully expect to have a claim on that on repair under the extended warranty.  I do not recall the exact cost to fix last time since I did not pay it but I think it was @ $700-$800 and I suspect that will be higher next time.
