What's the worst score you've ever had on one hole?

For me, it's a triple OB 11 on hole 6 (long) at Rankin Lake. The first two throws went onto the OB road on the right, and another landed in the middle of the road you have to cross to get to the long basket position. Anybody have one worse than that?
 
I've managed a double circle 9, haven't ever broken into double digits. My gf's dad was with us on a course with a small creek, and he ended up in the creek 5 different times on a hole for a quintuple circle 13.
 
Laughing................no we have always stopped counting after you score a 8 on any given hole. It slows down play, gets the person even more pissed. I remember some days that were smoking days, if we didn't stop counting at 8 we would never finish the game...........lol. :doh:
I know everyone throws great games here...............laughing. Let's face it we all have bad days. You have to laugh it off and move on, it's about getting out and just playing the game. :D
 
I've gotten a 12 on hole #10 at Jordan Creek. It's the type of hole where so much can go wrong and one day, everything did. I hate that hole.
 
I think the worst score I ever got was at Tully DGC when I played with solomon.trenton. It was a hole where the fairway followed a path in the woods and after the first 50-70 feet it took a sharp left and then was a straight shot down forming a backwards "L" where you start on the short part (hope that wasn't confusing). Instead of laying up at the turn and having a straight shot down, I plowed it into the woods and proceeded to get something like a 9 or 10 trying to get back on the fairway...

I can't remember what my final score was, but solomon.trenton offered to sign my disc afterwards as a reminder of that day..haha

that hole is just odd with its sharp turn early in the fairway and steep ledges if you go off the fairway even a couple feet....I could see getting par if you are careful, birdie if you are amazing, and aces seem pretty much impossible. That is a hole that I'd be happy with taking a 4 and moving on...haha

i saw a guy bird it my last time out. first shot landed in the fairway 30' from the basket:mad:
 
Don't laugh. As a noob i've only playing courses for a little over 6 months. When my buddy and I started playing, we had a maximum triple bogey rule. At that point we just move on. That rule worked until we played a really long course with a thousand foot hole. (Stafford lake, Ca.)
We still use this rule on most courses. (i'll also admit to occasionally playing the 'short tee's')
 
Snowmen were common at long 8 at Evergreen in Santa Barbara.

I've taken a triple circle 10 on one of the back 9 at La Mirada on the Championship layout 888 ft. par 5. It was just a casual round and I couldn't keep it out of OB.

First shot off the tee has 2 mandos plus OB left and right. The fairway to start is about 20ft wide, parking lot OB to the right, street OB to the left, mando to the right of a tree at 90'-100' out. Shank a Buzzz into the street trying to layup in the fairway and it skips off on it's merry way. 2 shooting 3. Throw a Beast from the drop zone which is still 650+ ft. awayfrom the basket; fairly open tunnel shot with a ceiling, just a few trees and another mando way to the right to keep discs out of the parking lot. Turn it over and it misses the third mando and into the parking lot. 4 shooting 5. Off to the second drop zone still 500 ft. away. Again fairly open shot with OB to the left and behind the basket into the street. Decent shot with a Wraith, a little left but in the general direct...skips into the street. 6 shooting 7. Bring my spot back into play still 100' from the basket. Proceed to short my approch with my putter (8), miss the 40' putt (9) and drop in for 10.

Had so much fun I came back the next day and took an 8. Same as the day before, into OB the first shot, missed the second easy mando to the right but made a better approach to show improvement.

I took a ten(10) on 150 foot hole, lots of trees, hit 4 of them with the last one knocking me into the nearby bog then proceeded to four putt.
 
Present hole 10 at Nockamixon is a par 5 821 ft wooded fairway the entire way that doglegs hard left and sits behind a stone wall. Snowmen are common here..Ive taken 11 or 12 many times on this hole....I rarely break 10 on this hole anymore but it's possible....unlike other tough holes, there is no OOB its just that hard of a hole and the part that really burns me up is that it is a fair hole.....I got birdie 4 once on this hole......to my knowledge it has never been eagled!
 
On a stupid little pitch and putt hole (#11 @ White Birch) I went long and down a hill into a creek. I tried to tommy out of the creek up the hill but hit a tree and the disc rolled back into the creek. So I'm already in deep do-do and try to cut my losses by taking a safer approach that skipped up top and landed on an edge. According to witness testimony it rolled right past the basket on its way back to the edge and down the hillside. At least this time I was dry. My next shot I put way up past the pin. After I struggled to the top of the hill my card gave me the happy news that I was still out, so tired and frustrated I went to my lie and flipped my putter at the pin...and fanned. Missed completely from about 25'. I was up on a hillside shooting down toward a basket on the edge of steep hillside that I had just taken three shots and two penalty strokes to get back up, and I fanned. My putter sailed on by and back down the hill into the creek. I then shot up the hill, layed up and dropped in for a triple circle 11 on a 185' pitch and putt hole. Fun stuff.

The worst part about holes like that is how silly you feel missing shot after shot. I was playing Richmond Hill, and on one of the tightly wooded holes I hit 7 different trees on my way to a no circle 8. I just kept getting more and more frustrated, then throwing into yet another tree...:rolleyes:
 
I've definitely had a few snowmen. The most recent one was on a pin on a steep incline. My par attempt was a face mask that rolled way down the hill. No problem, back up to the pin within range for the +2 attempt, chains, rim and down the hill again, back up and ready for that +4 attempt which went in the basket, circled half way around inside the basket and back out for the drop in snowman.
 
Took a 7 in tourney play once on a very wide open threeable hole...what got me was the pin was perched high up on a 12' mound, steep slopes on all sides. I got up close in my 2 shots, lobbed my third up towards the basket, where it proceed to skip off a few rocks and roll back down, then my next 3 shots were mirror-image back-to-back-to-back straight uphill putts from the base of this mound, each time up and over the basket, landing on the opposite side. Painful. The guys on my card were patting me on the back after that hole and trying to get me to shrug it off. At least I threed it in the second round (one of the guys on my card was with me the first round and was really rootin' for me the second!), but almost got called on a falling putt.

I took an 8 on #6 at Highbridge Gold my first time there, but that's a 1300-plus downhill Par 6. I'd say an 8 for me there is reasonable, but a tad unacceptable, at least by the golfing standards I hold myself to these days.
