If I could shoot a 66. I'd be getting my clubs for free.

Usually crush it on a nine hole round

It did it on 9 when I was 29.

I’m hoping to make it before I turn 70. If I hit my irons like today a lot, I will. Birdied 3 of the 4 par 3’s.

Can’t remember the last time I did that.

I’d imagine the key is to play straight forward courses from the appropriate tees

I watched my Dad do it when he was 80 at Anita Springs CC. My son and I witnessed it and we were pretty excited for Dad. I hope to accomplish that between 73 and 80. Soon after shooting his age he had to quit golf forever cause of a bad knee. We shared so many great memories playing golf. It broke my heart when he had to guit.

I’m still in my 50s.

Looks like I need to focus on healthy choices.

I'll probably be dead before that happens.

I first shot mine when I was 66. That was seven years ago so it's a tad easier, if I have a good putting day lol

Don't think I'm shooting a 47 on 18.

That is, unless Kim Jong-il plays under my name.

I shoot double my age all of the time. Does that count?

I've come pretty close on 9 holes, but that would be par for 9 holes...So, theres that.

I missed it by 5 shots back in August. Next year I’ll do it…I’ve got one small swing flaw that is holding me back.
I’ve been playing over 55 years and still no HIO. Either way, a HIO or I shoot my age, I plan on retiring my clubs after whichever comes first !
