how many balls usually lost in your game ?

1 ball @ mandai executives!
hahahaha

18 hole about 6-9 balls
Most of them contributed to the rising water level of the golf course

Lost like 15 balls for my virgin game at Poresia on 30th Apr. Haha. Hope next time will lose less.

Usually will lose 1-3 balls on a 18 hole course, really happy if i don't lose any.
But then if I do not lose balls how can i finish the stockpile I have in my storeroom!

Seriously I don't think any beginner will not lose a ball for 18 holes, especially it's their 1st game. Sometimes, it's not the ball got lost, it got plucked into the ground is more common here especially for malaysia course.

i translate" i think beginner will lose ball for 18 holes....."

Just curious, when you played your 1st game on a 18 holes, how many you balls you lost? I lost quite a lot recently on the Tanjong last year 1 month before the barclays. The rough was almost impossible to find balls? Soft ground....

Oh, I see. It is a typing error .. He mean " WILL LOSE" not "WILL NOT LOSE".

Thanks haragolfer

It's not a typing error. It's a comprehension error.

I have lost balls around the practice putting/chipping green area.

it is the double negative la, "do not think.... will not lose..." become " will lose"

Thanks Hkhamateur!

there are a lot of tough course in the world.. well if we talk about Asia some of the notable course that I played and been humbled are
9 dragon hills and phoenix hills Shenzhen, Citic C course Shantou...

I also still vividly remember someone who publicly said he will throw all his club away and quit golf if he played like me. well guess what, I beat him on a game with the same audience when he made the statement not long after with the help of the golfing gods (52 + 37 on white MBGC, bet he didn't see it coming, cause neither do I !!! ). Damn those were sweet indeed....

oh no... on your 1003rd post, you expose your buaya status by clearly explaining and demonstrating the 3-step "Eat PIG" procedure on the buaya handbook...

Step 1: Bait the pig.
Play lousy on purpose then get the PIG to make comments that he cannot take back. Then play on pig's ego to lure bait into commiting to a bet the next game (u scored 100% here)

Step 2: Seasoning the pig for the kill
Play a crappy front nine then pig now ego full ful already. Time to add seasoning and increase the bet big time (again, u scored 100% here for your controlled 52 and great acting skills)

Step 3: The feast begins
Play your normal game and slaughter the pig... mmm... roasted... nice (again, 100% score for you for a near even par 9 holes to ensure complete degustation...brilliant!?!)

In summary... bro @dmateo, you are a 100% perfect example of a buaya. :p



Back to the point of losing balls... the moral of the story is that you should not assume a golfers standard based on the number of balls he loses in a game... else, you may lose your own 2 balls by the end of the 18 holes

understood. Thanks

good round: 1 ball
bad roung: 4-5 balls

Nah I never had that kind of score again. That was when I am hcp 22 and play off 95-100 ish. That was the first time ever I broke 90 so it was very sweet.

There was no bait involve. The dude asked my average score and then said he would quit and throw away all of his club if he were to play like me.

Does that constitute me as a buaya? I think it's mere luck and element in line. But I will leave it to your own judgement.

No I won't judge you. But you have to give me 5-5 adjustable.

when i was playing laguna a long time ago, my friend and me all lost more than a dozen balls each by 12 hole. we decided any hole got water we just skip. ahhhhhhh, the fond memories ...... We still have a good laugh about it now.

Ah bro..laguna laguna...masters course.

Elsewhere i'd lose 1 or 2 balls usually.

But at masters, gteed i'd lose at least 6 balls. Max was 8.

The force is strong there.
