Have scored under 80 several times, same with Eagles.  Who knows when I'll get that lucky Hole in One.  Several close enough for a heart attack, but I never wind up buying drinks!

Not sure what a lot of the other awards mean, but I'm sure I'll figure them out in time.

You've got both of those now. Congrats!

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.

It occurs to me: I've participated in a few Member Reviews (Tee Claw most recently), so I'd love the achievement!

All set! Congrats and good luck!

Basically this is an honor system. 

You can start here: https://thesandtrap.com/awards/

Drill down to the Golf Achievements and Site Awards pages, and compile the list of which ones you have done. Then you just make your claim here, providing any information.

If you won a tournament or got an eagle like 35 years ago or something, then we tend send you back for something more current. A hole in one though, might be cool. But just what makes sense. I have one eagle from high school that was total luck, and I don't claim that, for example.

Just post here in this thread the relevant details of each one you think you're justified for, and @iacas will then respond as you probably see above in the 20+ pages.

Just found this section of the Sand Trap!  Purchased and read LSW last year before I joined the Sand Trap forum.  Got my first eagle sometime in the 1980's.  Won eight tournaments on the Michigan Amateur Tour from 2008-2012.

First, congrats on the good play.  Second, in order to actually tag a user, you need to type the @ symbol, followed by a few characters, and then select the user's name from the list that should appear. like this  @iacas

I purchased LSW over the weekend. Was supposed to be a Christmas present, but the wife forgot. :-O

Can't wait to get it! :-D

@iacas - perhaps missed this one because of the discussion between @DaveP043 and @1badbadger

Well, I  got another eagle (2nd) and broke 90. (88) Does a scramble count on Tournament Winner? Just a thought.

    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
    • Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.
    • No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁
