Stableford - What score are you happy with?

CSS is usually 68 round our place, which means 39 points will guarantee a cut. So thats my aim before every comp.

If I end up in buffer I will be happy, but try to aim high so that if I just miss out I should be safely in the buffer

This is where it becomes difficult to see the benefits of CSS, par is 70, sss 69, CSS normally 68. I could score 38 points against par, , but because of CSS, I dont get a cut.

Its hard enough getting your handicap down without having to shoot 3 better than handicap to even get a .4 reduction

I am only really happy if I shoot under CSS. So sometimes 37 is ok, sometimes it needs to be 39. Why would I be happy with less?

Sometimes I am happy with the way I played, irrespective of the score. Sometimes I am unhappy, irrespective of the score. I can be happy with 40 points, pee'd off with 40 points, happy with 25, and not happy with 25. It depends how well I was swinging, and how and where the mistakes were made.
 
The way I have been playing recently, I was happy with 33 points off the yellows at Wellshurst.

Give me a few weeks and hopefully that will be unacceptable.

But I doubt it......

I hear ya , my last two .1 were 35 & 36 points , css went to 39 .. sickened ..
 
34 Points and I am happy but taking less putts would make me happier at the moment, I am tagged with the nickname "Lee Westwood".

I scored 36 points yesterday but also took 44 putts on the back 9 hitting every green in regulation so was made up with that.
 
Scored 43points on Sat with a gross 75 (my lowest of the year) so i was very happy with that. But usualy if i come within 2 points either way of my handicap I am happy.

Sorry Just had to brag a bit :)
