4 birdies!

[TheJezster]

So a strange thing happened this morning in our comp. playing in a better ball cup comp, we came to the 9th (par 4) and all teed off. I was nowhere, my partner through the green and the other two left with shortish chips to the green. I went first and put it on the green (middle right) and the other two knocked theirs on, to about 6 and 8 foot. My partner chipped back for a tap in birdie, we weren't in any hurry so I had a go and got mine only to see the other two follow us in for 4 birdies on the one hole. Don't suppose you see that too often...

Guessing par 4 if the partner chipped to tap in birdie distance

yes I read that fellas, it was really a question to the OP as some courses the par changes for a hole depending if whites or yellows.

it's a par 4, I said that in the OP ;-)

 

[Foxholer]

I had 5 birdies in the last round I played (equal PB).

I won 2 Skins! :temper:

yea, not sure you read the post properly...

yes I saw that and reiterated I saw that. You all must be big hitters with one thru the back and two chipping. How long?

I did! 'Horizontal' v 'Vertical' Birdies! Still happy/unhappy at the 'waste'!

Just more 'unusual' events.

Don't worry CMAC, i know what you were getting at It does sound rather like a long Par 3

It's not the longest hole in the world. Our course isn't long, but it is tree lined heavily. The 9th is around 280ish, but its over a ravine and leak anything right and its away in the trees, and whilst you will likely find it, you wont have a shot to the green, so take it on at your own peril as they say!

We do have 3 par 3's over 320 yards too, the 1st, 8th and 12th and about 329, 333 and 342 yards so not the easiest holes.. Either way, short hole or not, 4 birdies in a 4 ball is some going, no one had witnessed that before.

this is SOME course, I've never come across one par 3 over 300 yards and you have THREE! but you have a par 4 at 280yds.

Someone is having a giraffe :rofl: or you're on the sauce early or slightly confused

 

[TheJezster]

Clearly I meant 200 yards. 229, 233 and 242.

Mental 4 drivers all between 270 - 290 yards.

a 3 wood and 3 2 irons no doubt!

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Yes - unusual. Had similar thing recently on our Par 5 first. A straightforward par 5 if you play it correctly but very easily to drop a shot or two. In our 4 ball we had three birdies and a par. None of us had experienced that for a four ball on that or any other hole.

Eih?

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Eih?

Well I guess if one is through the green and others are chipping on
