I have won the net division of the 2024 William Anderson Match Play Championships at Neshanic Valley Golf Course.

Broke par (finally!) with 69 from the white tees at Wing Point Country Club on July 25. It's a par 71 course. One eagle, 4 birdies, 9 pars, and 4 bogeys. Finished birdie, birdie, par on #16-18.

Does an even par 72 count as “breaking par?” Or do we need to shoot a 71?

No, unfortunately. Breaking par means under par.

Shot 71 yesterday (71.4/127) 6385 yards, par 72. I'm sure as hell am not a "stupid monkey" yet.

So I'm claiming the "broke par" award.

Congrats! Removed the Broke 80 award too.

I'm currently reading LSW, which I bought.  I'm not sure what I need to do to get the stupid monkey, but I'm trying...

Congrats! The Stupid Monkey topic has its own nomination topic, and we talk about what's required there. Certainly being a bit more involved here would strengthen your case. 🙂

I hope you bought it from https://lowestscorewins.com. Please do not buy from Amazon as that current seller of new books is selling stolen, illegally printed copies of lower quality.

(Question, off topic for the thread):

Spoiler

Would it help somehow if some of us posted to Amazon that the seller "is not an authorized seller of this product"?  I'm assuming you did that already, but would it help if others did it as well?

Probably. But if they have not taken action yet… I don’t know that they will.

I have lurked on this site for years, and have finally started posting a little, at least...  Time for me to claim my glorious achievements!  i wish there was one for shooting par... 😞   I have broken 80 had eagles and won team tournaments, but never individual... (don't want what i haven't earned).   And will continue to read my new copy of LSW that i got last week.

28 of the past 29 days (I missed two days ago) I did at least five minutes of practice each and described it in the "5 minutes practice" thread each day, as appropriate.  I forget if I'm supposed to say this here too.  :-) 

New goal for me:  don't lose this merit badge this time!

I broke 100 last week and then today. Last week I shot a 94 on a par 71 course and 95 today on a par 70. Does it only count on par 72 courses? I know I’ve played both of these courses before and definitely shot over 100 on each. So it feels like an achievement to me.

I believe it counts.  I certainly hope so, not only for you, because my home course is a par-71 and when I finally break 80 on it, and due to frequency I'd bet it's the first course I do that on, I plan on asking for the achievement award :-) 

Congratulations on the double digit scores by the way.

Oh yeah.  Well done, tehuti.  As we get better at scoring, we discover more facets to the game.  Hopefully you are finding joy discovering those in your increasing ability.

I try to just notice those in that topic occasionally. Good work.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
