Well, amateur one at least.

There are 2 framed cards on our wall just outside the bar, sharing the amateur course record of 69 (-3).
Don't know for certain but I guess the professional course record would be lower.

Anyway, today I beat it :D
In a medal too, so it should count as a new amateur course record.

Started rubbish. Had to chip out from my first tee shot and made bogey. Scrambled a par on 2 getting up and down from a bunker. Made bogey on 3 including a fluffed chip.

2 over after 3. Not the end of the world, but not good when you have 5 shots to play with.

The last 15 holes I had 7 birdies and only 1 more bogey for a 4 under par gross 68 :eek:
Only 2 of the 7 birdies were from outside 4'.

CSS didn't move so a nice 0.9 cut to my lowest ever exact of 3.6

Happy chappy tonight :cheers:
 
Great shooting Gary, chuffed for you!!!!!

When I was much younger shot a course record at my club as a junior, it lasted all of a couple of days before someone went lower lol! Hope yours lasts longer
 
Well done on your score that's some great golf!!!wish I could say the same we had a white box stablford today I played my worse competion golf round to date finished with 19 pts back 9 I couldn't hit a ball that's golf for you 😭😭😭😭😭
 
well done Gary
Great golf and great mental attitude after not the best start

Enjoy being the best amateur at your club:thup:
 
Great play Gaz.
Doesn't feel quite right getting less than a full shot cut for playing that well, if you know what I mean...
Any idea how long the old record stood..?
 
Brilliant, well played Gary and long may it last or until you beat it.
 
Congratulations. Well done to you.

Our course record was beaten last week, -7 for a 65. And Aparantly, it could have easily been/should have been -10.
 
Well played Gary. Not surprised after having seen the way you played at Forest Pines a few weeks ago.
:cheers:
 
Superb golf Gary.

Please tell me there were a couple of 20+ handicappers in the bar muttering "flippin' bandit" :D 😂 :thup:
