Yes......funnily enough, I got back from my first expedition to the course and told my Dad I'd gone round in 97. He replied....."less than 100?.....that's actually very good, you must have some talent".

Only later that day did he ask which course, to discover it was a 9 hole.

I haven't played worse than 95 this millennium!! although I may have managed it the day I played vs. GM if we hadn't stopped counting after the 14th.

Worse = 134
Best 66 (-2)

Worst score was my first competition off the white tees aged 10. I was so nervous it took me about 5 holes to get into it by which time I had already had a 9 and a 12

The 66 was at Wimbledon Common with a good mate of mine. I was on fire and it was the summer so the course was dry and running and a number of par 4's were driveable.

Homer, you're a b******. My worst was 134 the first time I played and my best a 67 years later on the same course ( winter tees etc.) You beat me by one. :mad:

How am I meant to remember my worst score- they are the ones I try and forget! My best score was an 83. Worst was probably around the 130-140 mark when I first started playing.

Worst? I hate to think - and why would I want to remember, though I seem to recall 90+ - on a par 3 :(

Not sure about all time, but over the last 17 months (since using Scoresaver software) worst is 98 and best 77.

Best ever golf though was last week in a summer match play final where, playing off my recently reduced h/cap of 13, I was gross 57 after 14 holes (par 53) which included a triple bogie of 7 :eek: :eek: Won 5 and 4.

Told you Leftie was on fire. (Played cr@p since though) :mad: :mad:
