[Ronald Montesano]

I scored 18 birdies and 0 bogeys, and I have the screen shot to prove it.

[Tommy Williamsen]

Fun test. Got lucky with a couple.

[Kalen Braley]

This should be an entry test to GCA.  -18 as well, even if I had to guess on one Florida course thru process of elimination.

[Pete_Pittock]

A mere 17. Got tripped up on a Florida tour stop.

[Jim Sherma]

17 - missed Cabot Cliffs.

[Peter Flory]

I can't believe that they got permission to build a golf course at the Old Head site. 

[Ronald Montesano]

Way to go, Jim Sherma. Gave one of the answers away.

[Matthew Rose]

17/18. I also stumbled on that question.

[Joe_Tucholski]

This should be an entry test to GCA.

What would be the required score?  And why?

[Tommy Williamsen]

I can't believe that they got permission to build a golf course at the Old Head site.

It wasn't easy and the local population is still upset about the course.

I don't blame them.

-18 of course, and looks like we got some pruning to do just in this bunch! 

[Ally Mcintosh]

There were two I wasn’t sure about and I guessed them both wrong.


16 out of the 18 courses are in the States. I’d like to see how some of you do with 18 non-US courses.

[James Reader]

What about 180 Ally?


@GolfBible has been running a quiz on Twitter.  It’s up to 180 courses, the vast majority GB&I.  Not sure if he’s finished now or whether there might be more to come but all the previous ones are still there.


It’s a tough school. If you take more than 10 seconds to figure it out and reply with the correct answer, you’re too slow.

[David_Elvins]

If you are on a mobile device an aerial of the entire course pops up which is a bit of a giveaway.  They may need to work on their photo cropping.

Yes, and a single digit handicap should be required too!

Agree 100% Ally - maybe we should do that 

[Chuck Glowacki]

At least I got Shinny & Fisher’s right

[John Kavanaugh]

Book readers repeating what they’ve read and TV watchers remembering what they saw. Smart bunch.

Some of you all need to get out of the house and take in some sunshine or something...
