Need a Ruling

    Ok so I played my first proper 18 of the year today. The first hole I went over the green on my second shot an out of bounds but, as it was just myself, I dropped one rather than walk back and proceeded to get a 6.

    On I play for the rest of the 18 and hit a great patch on the back nine that leaves me with 89 for the day. I have never broken 90 before so..... I went back to hole 1 after I finished, took the shot i was supposed to go back for and didn't, and got a 6 again.

    Am I lying to myself or does this count as breaking 90?

    Arguably it was harder to get the six when you knew you had a good chance of a PB.
    Its not at all legal or valid, but well done.
    Now you know you can do it so it will be easier next time.

    I would tend to agree. And well said.

    yeah I'll still go for a legit sub 90 but nice to show I can do it. 5 over on back 9 was highlight enough for me :)
