Best 9

What is everyone's best 9 holes?

Mine was today on the back of my 18. I shot a 37 on the second nine to follow a 44 to shoot a 81. I had 2 birdies and 4 bogies and the back was a great time for me but it didnt mean much with how i played the 1st 9. Ended up 11+ which isnt my best 18.

my best 9 was 4 over par, 2 doubles, and 7 pars

Mine is worth a mention on my Back 9:
10: Eagle
11: Bird
12: Bird
13: Eagle
...I am now starting to think....
14: Par
15: Bogey
16: Bogey
17: Double
18: Double

PAR!!!!!!!! After 6 under after 4 holes. It was my most remembered and hated rounds.

golf is a really cruel game........... i was one under after six and bogey the last 3!!! today! i still shot an awesome round for how long ive been playing.(about a year)

My best ever was a 45 with a birdie and a double (and the rest bogeys).

I have a local tiny course, par 31, and shot a 27 on it. Managed par or birdie on all the 5 par 3s.

32 Front 9 @ Jasper Park Lodge golf course, while working there a few years ago.

I will change mine, today, back 9 2 over par, and by the way I was 6 over on the front 9, that's 8 over par for the round, my best ever round,


The putting is getting better, I drop 8 putts off my normal round. 34 putts, still room for improvement my goal is 30 putts a round by September.

My goal was to be able to go around in par after playing for 4 years, and to be a par player after 8. I have only been playing 22 months now, and am aming to shot my first par round within the next 8 weeks.

Mine was about 6 years ago playing off a 18 handicap at men's night - I was 4 under on the front 9 at the Springs at Radium with 2 eagles, 2 birds and 2 bogeys from the tips . I finished 5 over (someone read me the scorecard so I was 9 over on the back) but I had a -13 gross and I cleaned up on prize money that night!

Now, my handicap has been at least 10 under the 18 I had back then for the last 3 years but I have yet to come under 4 on 9 holes since then.

I have done 32 on both nines at my course. My most memorable was when I thought I had blown a medal score after limping to the turn in 38 blows. Started back rather ordinarily, heres the numbers

4 Par
4 Par
5 Bogey
3 Par
4 Par
3 Birdie
2 Birdie
4 Par
3 Birdie

My most important was a 33 on the outward nine in the second qualifting round of our club championship. Having shot 74 the first round I knew that 71 or better would skate under the cut. My target was 36-35 (I usually score better coming home for some reason) but it went as follows

4 Par
4 Par
4 Par
3 Par
5 Bogey
2 Birdie
4 Par
4 Par
3 Birdie

I rather edgily came home in 36!!! But was tied 4th qualifier for the knockouts.

I once played the front nine in 9 consecutive pars as well, I was quite proud of that.

I did the back nine on my local course in level par, one birdie one bogey. The best thing about it, I never had a driver with me that day. Three wood off the tee and down the middle.

Since then, always had a driver and never parred it, sure there's a lesson in there somewhere.

4 under after nine done it 6 times now and not once in those rounds did I finish under par for 18 Now that choking. Best 18 is also four under par.

They say don't count your shots as your playing but you don't need to You automatically know where your standing, so how to you block a potentially great round out of your head?

Today i shot 3 under for the back nine!! !!!! and shot 1 under, first time ive broken par !!!!!! had a 4 foot putt for birdie on the last and a 69! but did the exact same a Olazabal and pulled it under pressure lol but ah well i got over it, it went:

Hole 10 - Par 4
Hole 11 - Par 5
Hole 12 - Birdie 2
Hole 13 - Par 4
Hole 14 - Birdie 2
Hole 15 - Par 4
Hole 16 - Birdie 3
Hole 17 - Par 4
Hole 18 - Par 4
