2023 Birdie Every Hole Challenge

[GolfSpy_APH]

I'm added it. I'll look to do a front end message for it when I get up in the morning.

[GolfSpy BOS]

I want to get back in this… I have to decide on the course though… I guess I should do where I’m likely to play with the kids since that I’ll be most frequent. Hmmm

[Parshooter36]

Maybe this will be my year. I ended with 14/18 last year.

[Peaksy68]

Managed to get all 18.  

Started this year with a birdie on the no 1 rated hole. Rest of the round was awful but at least I got that one ticked off

[GolfSpy_APH]

I am actually really excited for this challenge this year and am already thinking of what holes are going to be the toughest and what ones I should be able to take advantage of early in the season!

[CarlH]

Birdied #1 yesterday to add another for the year, so far.  I missed a couple of makable ones yesterday that would have been new ones for the year and one that would have been a repeat.

This should be fun, I have kept this for myself but great to see the progress of others along the way. GL to everyone and happy hunting. 

[AntLockyer]

1 round 1 birdie so far

EDIT. Just went back and checked, no birdie in that round, I have an unreliable memory

I just found this and added my name.  I play a bunch of different courses, but this one we play some in the summer, and its our go to during the winter(about 20 rounds a year), as long as snow doesn't prevent us from playing.   Lets see what happens in 2023, I went back and checked 6 birdies or better in 2021, and 9 in 2022!

Played January 2, 2023 it was a balmy 42 degrees, no wind!   One down 17 to go!

3 more on Saturday. Put it close (about 1 1/2 feet on 2 , the other about 8 feet). if I keep us this rate I'll finish this of quickly, pretty sure that won't happen

Settle down!  some of us haven't even played a round in 2023!

It's a marathon not a sprint... You don't really want to be over with it too soon anyway!  There's no prize for getting all 18 before I play my first round.

Highly likely that I'll start birdieing the same holes and won't get a look in on the ones I haven't  No off season here!

I currently have 18 to go to meet the challenge...  

Me too. New state, new course with new challenges. I put my name on the list. I want to get focused again. Last year I slacked off. 

[Eisen]

Yeah I won't even be able to play until end of March or early April. Unless you'll accept simulator results lol. 

[GolfSpy_APH]

Lets get this going! 

I have 2 rounds and 3 birdies on 3 different holes. Oddly enough a par 3, 4, 5. A good start to the season! Even if the rest of the rounds have been quite forgettable. 

[puttnfool]

Damn!  Some of you are already 100% on this and we're not even through March yet!  I was gonna join, but not sure I belong in this group any more.  Haha...

[GolfSpy_APH]

Glad this popped up again as I have a few more holes to add!

Funny how this starts to play into weekly rounds and I get more nervous on the holes I don't have my birdies on and relaxed on the ones I already have them!

You looking at the 2023 tab or the 2022 tab?

Hope I am getting the correct sheet to post status. Hate to be tracking with just myself.

You're right.  I was on the 2022 tab.  Guess I should pay attention better next time.

[Parshooter36]

I got my 2nd birdie last night on league, 16 more to go!

[Parshooter36]

Knocked another one off the list at league this week.

[JerryB]

Added myself in.  Birdies are still a rare occurrence so I'm going with pars.  Last year I got all but one hole.  This year I've had a couple hot runs already, hopefully I can get them all!

[TR1PTIK]

I play too many different courses to reasonably expect I could accomplish a birdie on every hole at any one course but I've always loved this idea. 

[GolfSpy_APH]

Was able to mark another hole off the list and it was 2nd hardest hole on the course!

Also hadn't updated in a while so I have the hardest hole and 4th hardest hole also knocked off. 

Unfortunately the par 3s are killing me so far and just not making much headway there...

Congratulations.  Tracking  birdies on every hole is  a cool thing to do. I’ve been doing this with a buddy for the past 5 years.  We also track eagles and total birdies for year. It’s fun.  A few years back I had 132 birdies in 125 rounds but needed the #1 handicap hole on December 31 and made it that day while playing with my birdie buddy.  That’s the only year in the 5 that I averaged over. 1 per round.  He’s beat me on average birdies per round 4 of the 5 years.  However, from 2019 through 2022, I had more birdies than him as I played more rounds.  It is one of the benefits of retirement.

[JerryB]

Been a couple weeks since I last checked in; I've already managed to par every hole this year.  Not gonna lie, feels really good.  I added in a second line to start tracking birdies.  Still a much more elusive one but I've got two so far.

[Stuka44]

I got four different holes, with Birdie, and one twice.  Playing there tomorrow hopefully get one or two more!  This will be my 6th round on it this year.

[Parshooter36]

Added #10 and #14 last night on league. #10 was 1 of the 4 I didn't get last year, so I was glad to get mark that 1 off the list.

[Stuka44]

My 6th round mentioned above, birdied #2 for a 3rd time.  I liked the idea of tracking pars also, so I added that for the same course.  Only need par on #1, and #3 handicap to finish off par.

[Parshooter36]

I knocked out #1 and #5 last night. I didn't birdie either of those last year, that checks 3 out of the 4 I miss last year off the list.
