Given the slope and yardage difference, the variance in your scores isn't as high as it seems.

Yeah, I think a slope of 137 is about the highest I have played..

Just playing with friends
Front 9 -6 for a 30
Back 9 +11 for a 47
Shot 51-37 in college qualifier match after getting beat in a playoff to finish second in a college tournament two days before.
In competition once shot 88-74 also shot 36-36-45-35 in another tournament.
Recently shot 91 and two rounds later blew five shots on last five holes to shoot 74.

I played in a tournaments on back to back days on the same course. The course yardage is 6400 and has average slope and rating.
Day 1 = 109
Day 2 = 78
I once played a round on that same course where I shot a +15 51 on the front nine and a -4 31 on the back.
Obviously, I am a very streaky and erratic player. There is very little in-between with my golf game.
On a side note and to brag a bit, I holed out a 210 yard bunker shot for eagle today but still shot a 92 at TPC Canyons in Las Vegas.

In a tournament last year, I had a round of 49-36. I think a bloody mary (or two) at the turn was involved.
Over two rounds, probably 92-80 or way back, 107-92.

Alot of times I will be too lazy to wake up early for an early tee time to goto the range and putting green and just show up 5 min before the tee time and go off cold. So I've done alot of like 50-39, 51-42, etc.

No doubt - that could be another golf thread. Typically, my big numbers result when I get into trouble off the tee, so I can have some swingy rounds when there is no driving range, or an irons-only driving range.

WTF club do you hit 210 yards out of a bunker? 4 iron? Ni han sir...

Normally a 4-iron, but I was too close to the bunker face and had to hit 5-iron for more loft. Thankfully I caught it pure. Easily the best and most exciting shot of my life.

About a month ago at the local 9 hole disc golf course in Isla Vista I threw a -5 which tied the "course record" with one other guy among like the 40 college students I know who have played disc golf there.... the next day I shot a +2, so that was pretty cool.
My average is right around -2
