I suck at golf.
BBBBut a few years ago played in a scramble with a kid who was on a small Div college team and that kids father who is a local golf course pro at a community golf course. We were joined by the coach of the kid who played with us.
On a par 70 course we shot 20 under.
It was a pretty easy day.
I only hit off the tee on the par threes. it served no purpose for me to hit off the tee on the par 4's and 5's.
I bought a BUNCH of beer that day.

86 was my tops. I always had a decent short game and my drives are usually straight but only average around 250. I found myself losing yardage off the tee to stronger players and thus having a reduction of scoring ooportunites. Gotta get back out to the range one day and see if I can find an extra 25 yds off the tee.
One over par for 9 holes and 4 over for eighteen...I was unfortunately by myself for the nine but the 4 over was in state championship.
Our local course let high school students golf for free, so I lived there in the summers. I haven't played in a few years but will play this summer.
It is a hard sport to stay on top of in the seasonal states. Every spring it feels like your starting over.

78...
My handicap is 12.7 so a score of 78 is almost statistically impossible. However that day something came together, I couldn't miss a shot. Every tee shot landed in fairway, I was hitting 15 ft putts without a problem. My friends stared at me in complete bewilderment, as if the longer they stared they would be closer to figuring out how I was doing it. It was an amazing experience, especially to do it with guys I golf 15 rounds a year with

My round was similar. I had a 14 handicap back then, but was sinking long putts all day. All of the Par 5's were reachable on the course I played. And I hit it longer 10 years ago than I do now. So I was reaching all of the Par 5's. I was 3 under through the first 5 holes. And just pretty much played par and bogey golf the rest of the day, without any major blow ups. My playing partners and I usually give each other a hard time on the course. But for some reason they didn't have much to say that day...LOL. I think it's because I took all of the skins and greenies.
Just last year a 74 on a par 72 which is a full 12 or 13 shots better then my norm.
I let my friend borrow my new driver that I bought the week before to test to see if he would want one.
I went out to play with some friends and forgot that I let my friend borrow my driver.
So I was one club short in my bag and my 2 friends drivers were completely useless for my game.
So instead of not playing I played with 13 clubs that day.
Without my driver I had the best round of my life.
Maybe I should consider leaving that thing at home.
