Golfshake Birdie Challenge
The Golfshake Birdie Challenge
Could you birdie every hole at your home/favourtie course (during multiple rounds) ?
Do you even know which holes you have birdied ?
Are you up for the Birdie Challenge ?
To find out how you fair go to the 'Analyse My Game' part of the score tracker where you will find a report for the Golfshake Birdie Challenge/course report
http://www.golfshake.com/report/courseReport.php
This allows you to select a course, date range etc and will then show your average hole scores, eclectic score plus how you are doing on the Golfshake Birdie Challenge ie can you birdie every hole over multiple rounds ?
Who will be the first then ?
Unfortunately I don't fair so well recording 3 out of 18

Erm...yea, I think it is possible! Think I have birdied 4 or 5 of them (in varying rounds!)

What about those that dont have 'home' courses?
Reply : Wed 26th Oct 2011 19:19
I'm in. Good idea Darren.
I think I will struggle on our 5th Par 4. 460 yards off the back tees & unless you can hit over 300 yards uphill you'll be playing at least 200 yards for your 2nd shot on an uphill lie with out of bounds down the right & a fairway about 80 yards wide!!
Green guarded by bunkers left & right.

Done !!!! I have an eclectic of -20 (16 birdies and 2 eagles). At my home course of Mapperley,This includes a hole in one at the par 3 eigth. I have also had birdies on the eagle holes.

I technically dont have a home course but on the 2 courses I play most often I have managed 8 & 7 out of 18. Which is more than I had originally thought when I trying to add it up in my head.

Best I've got is 7/18. Daren't look at Minch just yet; I'm sure there's a couple I haven't even parred yet
Reply : Thu 27th Oct 2011 01:06
Best so far is 6 at Morley Hayes. Mind you, I've recorded 34 rounds there since 2005, so I suppose it's only down to the law of averages....

For those with out a home club then no need to worry the system allow you to select any course you have previously played but the more frequent you play the more chance you will have!
Reply : Thu 27th Oct 2011 09:45
Brilliant new feature! Great way to see how you're improving.
Best I've got is also 7/18 at Norwood Park. Eclectic score of 66.

Birdied all the holes on my home course at some point and eagled 5 of them. Have to have a look later and see if their all recorded here. I make that 23 under par, gross 49. If only I was consistent!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before I moved courses I was 10/18, only 1 on my new course.
Reply : Thu 27th Oct 2011 14:25
Martin, suprised at your score average or is this for every single round and not filtered ?
Reply : Thu 27th Oct 2011 17:56
It is all rounds entered for Mapperley. My scoring average for 2011 for 48 entered rounds (But I do know I have played more) is 76.44 and for 2010 is 77.18.

I'm certain that I have played the Priors Course with a birdie (or better) for every hole.
I'll have to go and check now, but I'm pretty certain that I have done it.

@ Parc my home course , birdied every hole and have eagled 2 & 13 par 5's 7,11,14, drivable par 4's 15 ,drive and chip in. This has been over a peroid of several years and thats -24.
Reply : Sun 30th Oct 2011 20:04
I have achieved this feat.
My only problem is that they changed the SI for the course so some of them were done on one scorecard and the others on the new SI scorecard.
I cannot select both scorecards at the same time so I cannot publish the proof here.

Russ, is that technically a different course
for anyone with duplicates there will be a merge tool later this week.
We also have a 2nd player completeing the Birdie Challenge at Pine Ridge Golf Club - http://www.golfshake.com/community/award/birdie-challenge/

i do not have a home course, but in the last 38 rounds played i have birdied all the holes and eagled 2 of the 11 courses that i have played.
This doesnt take into account all SI's but only misses out index 3,6 and 17.
I know that this doesnt count, but its the best i can do, especially when most people play 38 rounds in 6 months at their home course and a good few of mine were only played once.
Reply : Thu 3rd Nov 2011 19:15
Nearest course is tilgate played 49 recorded rounds. 10 birdies and 1 eagle so still a way to go yet.
Dave CAC handed Geordie.
