Do you keep your score cards or just the "special ones"

I wondered if people kept their score cards? I have really only been playing for a few months, so I do not have many, but I am determined to keep every card from every course.
I know many of you have been playing for years, do you keep all of them, none of them or only the special ones i.e low scores, historic/famous courses etc.
 
scores from my home course I record onto a s/sheet, most others I throw away, if somewhere really special will keep card unless its embarrassingly bad, dont have many cards!, prefer to collect balls/markers.
 
i kept a few from rounds i player this year at the carrick on loch lomond and the dukes @ st andrews but i threw them out when i did a clear out a week or so ago.

so for me i don't keep them,if i've had any good rounds at my clubs they show up on the master scoreboard online so i can always view them there which is very good and handy.great for comparing my scores throughout the season.
 
For me it's only the special ones, West Course at Wentworth, Sunningdale all the other best ones at my club are on How Did I Do.com

I don't keep my club scorecards, but if I play a different course I always get a scorecard to save. Usually get 2. One to mark, the other to save. I'm a bit strange like that!!!

Generally an out and out home club man so don't have a vast collection. Tell you what though, there aint half some dull looking scorecards out there!
 
I wish I had kept all the scorecards from the different courses I have visited over the years. Just as a reminder, because I have played so many in the past it would be nice to be able to see exactly how many.
Given my time again, I would keep them.
 
There's a few I wish I'd kept, like those that broke par, but you always think you'll do it againbut better. Eventually that Old Fart syndrome catches up with you and the good scores become few and far between.
 
Dont bother coz il just throw them out after a while , most courses i play are comps so the score card has to be returned , i try buy a ball marker at the clubs i play to remind me of them
 
I've been playing two years and have every card, kept them because I wanted to measure my improvement. They make quite depressing reading so it won't be long before they end up in the re-cycle bin.
