What do you usually shoot when you golf?

Mid-to-upper 90's, and low 100's for the most part. Finally getting a driver I can hit brought me down a few strokes.

This is a very depressing conversation to be having during a snowstorm.

Well I have to take a 3 Iron off the tee since I'm about as inconsistent as one can be with a driver.

I usually shoot about 80-90, my short game saves me.  Very rare for me to have more than 30 putts in a round.

EDIT: punctuation and amount...because I wasn't fooling anyone

If we are talking about 18 holes you are the best putter in the world.  I don't know of any tour pros that average 22 putts per round. Current leader on tour is Corey Pavin at 27.17  If I have less than 30 putts for 18 I am usually taking home the cash.

If it is longer than your putter, no way I am giving it.

 Maybe its just who I golf with, but when my friends and I golf anything outside of a foot is not a gimme, cruel yes.

If we're just messing around, 2-3 ft is a gimme.

If we're competing, putt them all.

you said a lot.  that is only one confirmed BS-er.

Lighthouse 84

I'm typically 80-85, rarely going over 87.  Low round was 76, but I can count on two fingers the number of times I have been under 80.  Left an Ace on the lip once.  Waited for Carl Spackler to blow up the course so it would fall, but all I could do was jump up and down hoping it would fall......I did get the bird though!

I don't play golf......for money....with people....

I usually putt out anything over a foot.   I usually concede any putt for an 8.   I don't care if somebody is lousy, but please, for the love of all that is holy, don't look at a 10 ft putt for a 9 from 3 sides.    If you stink, at least stink fast.   Nobody actually cares if you shot 107-112, just whether or not you played quickly and were a fun partner.

Wondering how long it would take...


Chipping onto the green, put it close and knock it in.  One putt.

And the hardest course I play each year, is probably Brown Deer.  Take it for what it's worth.

EDIT:  It's certainly more than 22 (since I don't count putting from the fringe as a putt).

Nor should you.  It isn't a putt unless it occurs on the green.
That being said if you are making 14 one putts in a round it is still amazing.

I am almost automatic from 10-15 feet and I am rarely outside of 10 feet when lining up putt number 2.  Then again, the greens I am playing are not all that difficult.

I can check if Bruce is available. Maybe Crean can come also. Oops, he doesn't golf. Just plays around with his putter.

On a good day mid 90's but usually 100-105 like Fry Boy.

see my short game saves my round. I used to be deadly accurate with my nike 56 degree -I lost it, but I got it back-  and I can 2 put from just about anywhere, usually

I use a Hippo, but it's probably my most consistent club.

Other than my putter  ;)
