9 & 7 is my claim to shame and that was not long after I started.

One of our pairs were 9 up on the turn a couple of weeks ago when one of their opponents walked off, the single golfer then managed to halve the tenth.

 

[Oddsocks]

have you ever been beaten 10 & 8?????

7&6 is my worst, 10/8 I think I'd sell up!

 

[Norrin Radd]

won a first round ko match 10&8 lost the second round 9&7

 

[Sweep]

Been 9 down and 9 to play and lost on the 18th

 

[Liverbirdie]

Yup, by a well known forumer at Aberdovey earlier this year. Giving away 10 shots and I was 2 or 3 over gross at the turn, and 9 holes down. I think he was either level or +1 gross after 9. Not my proudest moment, but if I was playing my best golf I'd have lost by 5 or 6 anyway...

Yes Dan, but he is rather a large chap, and with his body shielding his shots for the outward 9, I think it was a large advantage to him.

That's very true mate. I'm gonna have to start power eating just to be able to compete!! Or I could just quit the game as some on here suggest....... Nah, I've spent too long getting to single figures to worry about what others might think

Oh god yes, in an A team match years ago, both of us off 5 at that time, we won the 9th hole to prolong the agony with a birdie, our only highlight. We shook Mr Toynes hand who was 4/5 under himself, amazing golf and made it look so easy, he said, sorry guys I must dash off I need to be somewhere. He was on a mission.

We had a relaxing few hours to kill before the rest came in for the then obligatory meal.......

 

[Smiffy]

No - but I guess there might be an interesting story behind the question to the forum..............................

Trust me. It wasn't that interesting....

 

[PNWokingham]

We only lost 8 and 6 partner.

Due to playing at a small club with only about 30 regular competition players, I used to get picked as a sacrifice leg in the scratch team. I didn't mind, it was good practice and a learnnig curve.

I played a guy off 4 when I was off 18 on an absolute howler of a day - rain was coming up from beneath you and it really should have been called off in all honesty but we needed the match played asap so we persisted with standing water everywhere. I took him as far as the 12th green where he won 8&6.

We had a guy off 28 playing someone off about 2 that day... he shook hands on the 9th when nine down after nine... it was a nine hole course, you see, and he couldn't be bothered walking out into the course again in the driving rain.

 

[jpjeffery]

No, but I have been beaten 9&8. I was up against a team of two players who were both significantly better than me, so I had no chance.

They were, at least, nice guys, and we played the rest of the course as Bingo! Bango! Bongo! which is a format they'd never heard of before.

I came last in that too.

What a great day!

 

[chrisd]

I think my worst was 5 and 4 in 4bbb.

We did beat the Captain/pro 8 and 7, 2 years ago and they acknowledged it could have been 10 and 8 had they not chipped in and had an outrageous putt for half

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Got beaten on the 11th once. The bloke was 7 under gross for the first 9 holes. Blew me away and I never got a chance to draw breath. Once you go a few down you start chasing and make more mistakes which exacerbates the issue. I've played with the guy many times since, friendly games, and he has never played near that standard. Good bloke though so I didn't mind and we just laughed about it. Embarassing in the bar afterwards though as no one wants to hear that the other bloke played out of his skin. They only hear the headline numbers.

I won one of my scratch matches against a 6 handicap during that season I was off 18.

It was at my home course and I holed a putt from off the green to win 1 up.

I had actually gone around in a personal best of 7 over par, so he hadn't played badly at all, but all his mates did was laugh at him losing to the bogey golfer.

 

[Keeno]

I have been gubbed 6&5 3 or 4 times, not the best feeling in the world. In 2 of those I was lucky to get that far.

6&5 is my biggest win.

 

[Kellfire]

6&5 is my biggest win.

I've won a 4BBB 8&7 and that's by far my biggest win. My score counted on every hole but the ninth for my pair and we were the away team. I was level par through 12 after eagling it.

Then I went 6-6-6-6-6 for the last five holes, four of them par 4s.

Typical golf, eh?

 

[99problemsbutapitchaint1]

6 and 5 in first senior match (I was a junior and played awful)

 

[Ethan]

Never beaten 10 and 8, but have been on the wrong end of 6 and 5 and the right end of a dog licence.
