You've played in a comp and you've had a good day. Not a brilliant day but a good day where you drive home and think 'I enjoyed that'
What would your score be?

Buffer.
It means I've played reasonably.
35-37 points, 76-78 shots - not a bad day at the office.

if i enjoyed it, doesn't really matter, after all i play for fun.

Buffer for me although there would always be that little voice in my head that i was 1-3 shots away from a cut !!!!

Assuming the weather was decent, I struck the ball ok and the company was good, I reckon on hcp.

In terms of scoring then buffer is a good score but there's plenty other aspects that might mean I say 'I enjoyed that'

Buffer here, a brilliant day would be beating h/c, but if I enjoyed the company/weather or played well for 9 and not buffered etc I could have a good day but still be a little disappointed with the +0.1.
That said I didn't buffer the day I got my hole in one and drove home with the biggest smile on my face in ages.

Exactly what happened on Saturday. 36 points in tricky conditions.
could have been 3-4 better, but drove home smiling as I had shot my handicap, and actually thought how much I had enjoyed it.

I'm not really happy with where my handicap is, as such I believe I should be playing under it. Therefore I'm really only happy with my game when I play under my handicap.

Not bothered about score, "I enjoyed that" is the important part to me.
I've enjoyed days out where I've shot 90+ and under handicap.

100% agree with this Iain, I played Andy at SAOL last summer and took a pasting from him but it was one of the most enjoyable rounds I had last year.
Anything under 100. That may not sound great to you, but I am a really poor golfer

Score not as important as having an enjoyable round. If you have enjoyed it, you probably played reasonably well so score should reflect that.

I've been playing pretty well of late so I'd be looking to beat nett par

Anthing under 100 would do me.
Mind you if I have played with a knob, a round in the 70's would not be enjoyable.

:rofl:likewise with the drubbing you gave me around Wallasey . There is more to an enjoyable days golf than the score !

Same for me.
However, I've played badly and had fun loads of times so I voted Not Bothered.
I'd say it's more that I'm happiest when I shoot under h/c (obviously) but I can miss buffer and still be happy. I got a tanking in the club champs last year, lost 5&4, but had a cracking day. Played just about on buffer, I think, but it's not just about the score.
Buffer for me although if I feel I've played well and perhaps had one poor hole thats missed the buffer as a result, I'll try and take the positive from the whole and not dwell on the one bad hole.
