Well, I've had two aces, and shot under par 4 or 5 times.  I checked and saw that I have the LSW award, and I haven't earned that one yet.

See the first post.

Awards and Achievements show up in different places. Both show up on your user profile page.

Currently achievements don't show up because we modify the "info pane" or "postbit". The part with your avatar. That's where achievements will show up.

If you had an award, @stealthhwk, it would appear below your signature area.

Ok, LSW award is good enough to supercede all of those, without which I wouldn't be playing like I am now! :-)

I have broke 90 many times.  Can't seem to break 80 though.  Hit it on the head a couple times.

I've shot in the 80s, so I think that means I broke 90 (I always forget if it's breaking out of a decade or into a decade).

No hole-in-on. I'm assuming holes-in-one during mini-golf don't count, haha

I also practice like a dumb ape, but I'll let others judge my qualifications for the foolish simian trophy.

Yes:  Broke 90, LSW

I don't remember if we agreed I was a stupid monkey or not.  I've stopped asking "why" in lessons, although I've only had one lesson since July, so maybe I should get back to consistent practice to make sure I am still one before I claim the award.

    • A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.     
    • I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
    • That's a great spring/summer of trips! I'll be in Pinehurst in March, playing Pinehurst No. 2, No. 10, Tobacco Road, and The Cradle. 
    • April 2025 - Pinehurst, playing Mid Pines and Southern Pines + 3 other courses. Probably Talamore, Mid-South, and one other.  July 2025 - Bandon Dunes, just me and my dad.
