What's the lowest under handicap you've ever played?

[full_throttle]

8 under from the comp tees,

10 under from the yellows playing a society

 

[Pathetic Shark]

-6 gross playing off six. Not a qualifier unfortunately but it was still 48 points.

Played in a society event once at Pine Ridge when 40 pts got you 11th out of 50. The runner-up on 47 had the balls to call the winner a bandit.

Like Val, I was off 18 and shot gross 79 in a medal. Par 71, SSS 70.

Sadly I can only dream of such scores nowadays.

 

[Beezerk]

10 over in a board comp while playing off 18, included doubles on 16 and 18 as well. Should really have broken 80 that day but can't grumble.

Blimey - it's like Mexico City in here.

That's some doing! On the back 9 were you hitting greens in reg or a lot of 1 putts?

Holed a fair few big putts. Made all 3 par 5 greens in 3 to the green and sweated over plenty of 2 putts. Was one to remember. Shame I'm now averaging 2.3 putts per hole and finishing anywhere from 19 to 22 over. But that's golf for you ey!

Struggled with my swing 5/6 years ago and went from 10 up to 12, got going again after the winter and shot 70gross off 12 for a nett 58, 50 points, got a bit good bantered stick for that, lowest score to date, still.

Last year in a pairs BB, I chipped in twice, had a putt drop from 30 foot, and chipped out of the trees for a 4 on par3(when I thought I had lost two balls off the tee), for 8 over playing off 18 handicap. Had only played about 4 times in the previous year. My partner was also having a blinder as well, score 54 or something points between the two of us. It was embarrassing

Over 10 years ago whilst playing off a club handicap of 14 iirc, I shot 1 under par the course, so fifteen shots under in a friendly game with friends

Yes I blow hot and hot

 

[sawtooth]

12 under.

My first official handicap was 16 and within a year or two I shot 4 over gross 74, net 58. Unsurprisingly it was good enough that day to win the club championship (best Net) back in 1995. One of my golfing highlights.

 

[Rlburnside]

long ago in another century even ,when i was just a lad.playing off22 i was in a 36 hole comp ,in the morning i shot a gross 80 for a nett 58 ,i was cut five shots for that score ,so the afternoon round i shot a gross 83 for a nett 66. needless to say i was branded a sombrero wearing SOB

Like you I played in a 36 hole comp. and had a net 58 in the first round.

I wasn't cut for the second round in the afternoon .

I don't think you should have been cut for the second round as the rules state that if you play a 36 hole comp. the same day your h/c can't change.

As you say it was long time ago maybe the rules were different then.

 

[One Planer]

10 under handicap off 16.

 

[3565]

'96' I shot 74 gross off a 12 hc and won a major trophy the size of the FA Cup.

 

[Hosel Fade]

7 under twice, once off 14 and once off 10 (was 2 under gross round the front on the one where i was off 10).

 

[mcbroon]

Blimey - it's like Mexico City in here.

75 off 12 (CSS 73)

Followed not too long afterwards by 71 (+2) off 9, CSS 70.

I still have my sombrero

 

[Snelly]

As a boy, I had a medal round of 80 nett 58. I won the medal and was cut to 10 as a result. I then won the next junior competition at the club off my new handicap.

 

[kid2]

74 gross off 12 a couple of year ago. And had a few 73's between last year and now off of an 8 hc and now 6 hc.
Been 2 under par as far as 13th at our course a couple of times and slipped on a couple of holes to shoot those 73's.
