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!?

wow, maybe i shouldnt be here? LOL

I just turned my first round of the New Year and it was a miserable 14 over?

Now im not a pro, but im a solid intermediate and the conditions were terrible. Here in ATL yesterday we had 40-50 mph winds and I decided to test the water. BIG MISTAKE. Basically played Bogey golf all day.

I rediscovered my putting game, and have been crushing at vet in Arlington.

shot an even par today. my best score ever in the current layout. I shot a few under back in the old layout many,many years ago. but I'll take an even par, since I know I can improve on it.
now to bring it when it counts, in a mini or a tourney !!!

par/even. on a 56 par course. (though one was set up as a par 4 at the moment).

Don't be so hard on yourself man

I feel what he is saying though. even though a bad round can really bumm you out.

as what I feel I am, a solid INT player also, I feel like I should be moving up to compete with the ADV players any time now. and probably will.
just gotta keep getting out there and playing to get better :)

and don't let the bad days get you down.

[Roy]

Right on! The most important thing is to have fun!!!

If my score bums me out, then I stop keeping score!

I didn't keep score for a long time, really until like 4mths ago did I actually start keeping score.

Lol I think I said your advice was the best of all on another dicussion today Eric. It was on "My arm is getting away from me" maybe it was another Eric and I'm just looking like a moron, lol.

Oh, I dont let it get to me. The conditions were terrible. It was 37 degrees and we had 40 mph winds consistently.

My best score on my homecourse is a 2 over 63. And our course is very long and full of obstacles. Check it out at dgreview JP Moseley disc course in Stockbridge Ga.

I just moved up to Intermediate and placed 4th in my most recent tournament.

-9 at a course in Shelbyville TN. Best round this year is a -4 at Barfield Crescent Murfreesboro TN in mad wind.

[Pat Burke]
