Can you shoot your age?

Recommended Posts

We had my clubs invitational tournament this weekend. I have a great great uncle that played in it. He shot 74 yesterday and is 87 years old!!! I'm always amazed with someone that can shoot their age, or in his case a lot less. Thought I would ask the MGS community if they can or play with someone that can?

Since I moved to central Florida 5 years ago I have been amazed at the older golfers who can shoot their age . It's freakin crazy how good these seniors R. The local paper runs a PAGE with hole in ones, Eagles and age breakers. That's a page! I've been lucky enough to play 18 with a couple of these guys and it's more than impressive.

This man I'm talking about has a condo in Fl. Not sure where. He heads down around October and comes home (central KY) around April. I guess that's why he's so good, plays year round.

Shooting my age (66) is about as likely as me running through hell with gasoline drawers on . Neither one is gonna happen....

 

I do have an old friend who is 77 years old. He's shot his age and below several times this year.

Shot a 68 when I was 69 from the back tees of a good course, but got into coaching and spectating granddaughter softball and soccer and didn't keep up the golf. Trying to recover, but not at all sorry for the time spent with the granddaughters.

I could probably manage 26 shots through 5-6 holes on a good day.

Does it count if I shot my age today... 70,  15 years ago?

 

I shot 71 last year.  If I don't get any worse, I have the possibility to do it next year.  The problem is that it's more of a struggle every year to shoot low scores.

This year I may have a shot at 9 holes since I'm 29. Even then it'd take luck and my best day.

Actually, I may have done it at a local club championship on 9 at a par 64 a couple years back. I shot 58 but no clue what my scores were for each 9. Also not sure my age at the time but I'd guess 27.

 

Guy i play with turned 64 this year and badly wants to shoot his age. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he does it either. Impressive as the course he plays is either 73.1/128 or 71.3/121 depending on the box.
