played our winter league this morning, winter greens yellow tees. bit chilly this morning. i nailed the 3 wood of the tee,220 yards. lands 6 inches off the green. big bit of dirt on the ball, lines up and putted in. 2 net 1 5 points. ended with 42 points but someone had 46 . enjoyed the golf get in

Well done. Was it a 220yd par 4?

temp greens and yellow tees, course is very short, i estimate 220, i hit driver 237 ish, still 5 points is 5 points. and i get a magic 2

I only had 5 points on the front 9 at Lanhydrock

Congrats big man!

I had a five pointer last week - chipped in for three on a par five - it's a great feeling, isn't it.

yep never had one before probably never again but get in 5 points

I was well happy after taking a par from the hardest hold on my course, a par 5 and getting 4 points in an otherwise pretty poor round (15 points from all 9 holes).

Then you have to spoil my happiness by cracking in a mega putt for 5 points!

Good on you!

I like 5 point holes!
Had a couple down the years. There's a par 5 at my old place that was easy for m to reach in 2 - Driver 5 wood - and I eagled it 2 or 3 times with a shot. Great to put down on the card and makes up for some cock-ups previously.

220-230 is still only a par 3 surely

You are a bandit

220-230 is still only a par 3 surely

the green keepers shorten the already short course in the winter. BUT par stays the same!!! there is another par 4 which is a 4 iron less than 200 yards. dont try and take my 5 points away . remember its the same for all the rest not just me.

it took my card marker a few minutes to work out it was 5 points plus it was a net hole in one

I only had 5 points on the front 9 at Lanhydrock

Last work society day I went to, I "randomly" got put with a "28" handicapper in a pairs comp, front 9 you add your scores, back 9 you multiply them together, so any 0 score wipes out the hole on the back 9.

He scored 5 points FOR EIGHTEEN HOLES! I scored 24 points on the front 9, we ended up with 25 points overall!

Turns out he'd actually only played twice before in his life, no sh*t! This is the same society that withdrew the longest drive prize after I won it ONCE and only plays it if I'm not playing (I wouldn't mind, I hit the ball a long way but the chances of me actually hitting the fairway is about 7/1 (I hit two a round, if I'm lucky)!

Bitter, me? F$%&ing right I am! One of these days I'm going to win a nearest the pin, just to annoy them, although with some of the cheatin' ^H^H^H^H they have there I'll probably have to hole one to win that.
