Hi Allie! 😊 First of all, don’t feel bad at all — I think just about every golfer has been confused by the golf scoring terms at some point. When I started, I could never remember whether a birdie was better than a bogey or the other way around! 😅 What finally helped me was remembering that: ⛳ Birdie = 1 under par (good!) ⛳ Par = exactly what the hole is supposed to take ⛳ Bogey = 1 over par ⛳ Eagle = 2 under par (rare and exciting!) Honestly, after a few rounds it starts to become second nature. The fact that you’re keeping score and learning the terms means you’re already making progress. My golf confession is that when I first started, I was so focused on remembering the score that I’d sometimes forget how many strokes I’d actually taken on the hole! 😂 Keep asking questions and don’t be afraid to laugh at the learning process. Golf has a lot of little rules and terms, but that’s part of the fun. Before long you’ll be explaining birdies and bogeys to the next beginner who joins the forum. Welcome to the game, Allie! 💚⛳ — Susan 🌸
