What's the best round you've shot this year so far?

Since we're winding down to the end of 2008 and I just shot the best round of the year for me at my favorite course, I figure it's time to hear some stories on everyone's best round so far in 2008.

I just shot a bogey free -11 at Telulah park in Appleton, WI. All the pins are in the short placements with the exception of #4 and #5. I shot -3 on the front 9 and deuced all but #11 on the back. I had set myself up with a nice 12 footer on it and just whiffed completely. I also nailed the basket on my drive on #18 about 1/2 inch below the rim. An inch higher and it's a very probable ace. Luckily it only rolled away about 18-20 feet. I did also hit basket on #4 on a long putt.. which is a tougher deuce when it's in the long placement.

All-in-all it ties my best score there or anywhere (I believe) so far this year. I've shot two bogey-free 11's there this year. The course record, to my knowledge, is -16 held by a friend of mine. I'm fairly sure that was all short placements. I shot -11 with a missed short put and an almost ace.. Just think if I had shot better than -3 in the front! :P

So let's hear it.. what's YOUR best round in 2008!?

We've got a couple short-ish courses here that I've shot a few 12 under pars at this year. Had an ace during the first one, I was 5 under after 4 holes!! Good scores but on medium ranged courses with little obstacles. 13 under on a short, but heavily wooded 9-hole course is still my best. I had three aces in October, two in three days. Countless dinks... :)

NICE. I grew up at Vollrath in Sheboygan, WI.. so short courses are what I grew up on. I've got 4 aces this year and like you said - countless 'dinks'.. good year! thanks for the reply.

Hey Hutch, I live in Fond du Lac. I didn't play Telulah this year. I think my best there is -7, but I'm not sure. That I though was a solid round. In Fondy this year I think my lowest was 10 or 11 down, I don't honestly remember. My best ever there was 12 down. I shot a 7 down on the front and then on the easier back I only shot 5 down. The record for that course will go down in Fondy history as 14 down by Guy Redlinas the course has now been redesigned.

The course is completely new now! We had to redesign it to accomodate a new drainage pond system they built. I think it's better! (though not all agree) Hole 17 and 18 are signatures now. I'd recommend checking it out and definately playing in the Fond du Lac Open.

I think my best on the new course here is 5 down so far...not all that impressive, oh well. We've been playing all doubles this fall.

I don't remember the exact date, but I shot a -2 at Begg Park in Battle Cree/Springfield, MI. My drives were on, my approaches were great and my putting was excellent. If it weren't for a few missed birdie attempts, I could have had a -5. Never have shot that well since. I am still in my first year of playing so I was very excited that day.

[Mike Kearbey]

2 under 53 on my home course in walla walla wa...blue course.

[Rusty Pappas]

1008 (i think) rated round at the Dynamic Discs Cedarville Open...first open event, first open cash :D

Also set a new course record at Springlake Park here in Texarkana....-16 for 22 holes. Birdie-fest of a course! I've taken a 2 on every hole since moving here in Spring 2007, but just happened to string a bunch together that day ;)
