Course Records

I posted everything but the course, ha ha.

Buffalo Trace

I would say that is a record for doubles here at Lebanon. I don't think there has ever been a doubles tourney here, so I guess if anyone can beat you and David, they're welcome to try!

Keith shot a -17 (37) at Iroquois. Only missed hole 15.

No Way don't belive it for a second. my best is 14 which coulda been 15 but i missed hole 18 (ooops). I was in position for a 15 and it was hard to get there. does he have an unbiast witness?

Personally I think all course records should
have a witness. Big aces should but not as
important as course records.
Just my opinion

Shouldn't *all* course records be in a tourney round, where scores are documented (be it sanctioned or just a league)? That's what I've always understood. Otherwise, it's *unofficial*...

I agree with Daniel to a certain extent. Tournament rounds should be thought of as the "real" course record, it's documented, it counted, it was "worth" something, it was recorded.

At the same time time people like knowing the best score shot a a given course, tournament or not, to know what's possible. Those hot casual rounds almost have an asterisk by them though. I know my 43 at CV was witnessed, but since it wasn't in a tournament I still feel like it's not quite the real course record.

Tournaments bring additional pressures and the rounds from a tournament hold more value than those of a casual round.

I love Martin's post about all of the records, thanks Martin!

Thats silly of course a record can be set in a casual round it just has to be witnessed to count.
