NCDAWG Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I was gonna say a Desert Eagle .50, Beretta .40...but you ruined it for me
MattyT Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I'm just going to say "over par" and leave it at that.
edemup Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I'm right at about 100. I broke 100 last year for the first time. I'm hoping to get down to the mid 90's consistently this year.
bbills17 Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I hope most of the lurkers reading this thread know that likely 90% of these scores are exagerations to downright lies. I don't know how many times I've been out with a '80-90' golfer only to find it's really 100 if he counts properly.
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I started last May and consistently golfed about a 60-65 till late July when I broke into the lower 50's for the rest of the year Been out 3 times this year first time on a course in Suffolk Virginia--hit a 124 Got back to my regular course and hit a 95 (48 front--47 back) for my best score ever. 2 days later I hit a 91 on the same course (47 front--43 back) paring 5 holes and 1 birdie for my new best score ever!
BillsFanNC Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I don't play nearly as much as I used to. When I was playing a couple times a month I was high 80's. If I went out today I'd be happy with high 90's.

You have a better chance of seeing people be honest about the size of their whangers than about what they shoot on the golf course.

But one of the guys I play with is a real prick and a stickler for the rules, even if we aren't betting. Very anal retentive. He was pissed a little while back when I noticed he had 15 clubs and I mentioned it on the 3rd hole. 4 stroke penalty baby.
BuckeyeBill Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I've been playing for maybe 10 years... not consistently however (not enough mulah) Shoot anywhere from 95-105... depends on the day.
HopsGuy Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I was much better in high school when I shot consistently in the 80s. Now I struggle to break 100. I have, however, recoreded a hole-in-one: 147 yd Par 3 #6 @ St. Bonaventure CC. That was 16 years ago when I was a freshman in college (sigh).

Zona Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 I am consistently in the mid 80's, although I finished last summer with four staight rounds in the 70's. My best rd last year was a 74. Shot a 34 on the front and a 40 on the back, 6 birdies on the day. I made almost every putt. And if you want to play the "strictly by the rules game", I still had 4 rounds in the 70's.... I dont do mulligans, or winter rules. Hit the fairways and greens, and this game is easy... I just laid out some cash and bought myself the new S59's from Ping with a new G2 stiff shaft Prolaunch 10 degree driver, and a steel shaft G2 3 metal... Now I just need to wait for desert to hit 100 degrees so the rates drop, and then I am back in business
USMCBillsFan Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 I played a best ball tourny yesterday and our team came in with a 65. Good enough for 4th out of 30 teams. I myself usually shoot mid to low 80's. Depending on the course. I started about 15 years ago and don't play as regularly as I used to. My biggest problem is my "baseball swing" when I drive. Causes a slice but I've adapted my aim to compensate. I bought the Titleist 983 driver yesterday so I'm pumped to get back out.
linksfiend Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 I've been playing regularly for about 10 years and usually shoot high 80s to low 90s. The only rule I knowingly break is I putt with a clean ball. Who wants to walk back to their bag to clean it or carry around moist rag in their pocket?
TigerJ Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 I shot a 65 once. . . then I had to play the back nine. That didn't go so well.
Billzfan23 Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 I started playing last year after my hockey career ended, I picked it up pretty well. I shot at 90 (give or take 2 or 3) everytime, which I'm told is good for never playing the game. My goal is to get to 83 by the end of this season. I played on a Par 3-9 hole earlier this week and shot a 32. 311474[/snapback] I have been playing for 6 years, handicap is 15.8. 27 years old, I am a pretty long hitter, my short game deserts me from time and I tend to have a hard time keeping it in play off of the tee which costs me some strokes.
