Do I get an award for getting my first eagle since returning to the game after am 8 year layoff this summer?  The 4th hole at Fountaingrove, 490 yard par 5.  Driver, 5 iron to 10'.  Made the putt for my second eagle ever, and first since starting to play again a couple years ago. 

Looking to break 80 in 2018!

Of course! Award granted. Congrats!

If solo rounds count, I'd like to claim the Broke 90 award. If not, that's cool.

I was so caught up in posting rounds towards my HC last year, I totally missed this. (the first 9 was a solo 46, and the second 9 with playing partners a 41). Anyway, the combined 87 was my lowest 18 hole round.

I also scored an Eagle in 2017 on a par 5 (also during a solo round).

I am still familiarizing myself with the possible awards achievements, but if possible to be awarded something I have broken 90 twice!

I'm also a newbie but in 2017 I broke 90 quite a few times but never broke 80. 

If you feel like awarding me the breaking 90, I would gladly accept it.

P.s. If there was an award for the most 3 and 4 putts for the year, I'm sure my name would be all over that bad boy! ;)

It's all yours. Let's look to replace it with a "Broke 80" award this year, eh?

Also, both of you could use a nice avatar… :-)

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

Yeah, it is, sorry.

If you play two nine-hole rounds relatively close together in time (and back to back) and par is 70+, then that might count.

I'd leave that one up to you.

I shot 69 in the Los Angeles City championship

I regularly break 80.

I had 2 Eagles in 2016 within 1 month and never before or since.

Happy if you award or not! Pretty good rounds when you combine them, but it's not a very long course! Tiny greens though, so there is a lot of defense there. Delighted with the birdie at the last to finish level par as well :-)

That's your call to make. I'd lean toward no, because I'd intended it to be an 18-hole award, but if you almost never play 18 holes… I could see making an exception.

Ok, let's go with no and keep pushing towards doing it - I want to be able to do it on the Championship 18, which would be phenomenally good work for me (6700 yards with some utterly brutal holes in the wind and tough greens). I think you're right, this shouldn't be something that I can do with driver, wedge repeatedly.

Hold on, scrap all of this - I have actually done it already, just at a different course:
