My worst round in competition was a 90 I shot (also in an MPGA event) about 3 weeks before my 68. Although the scores were on different courses, the difference in scores raised some eyebrows. There is no way to explain but I know I played the best I could on both days.
When it comes to telling people about your scores, or your round, I always think of the old adage....."90% of the people you tell about your score just don't care what you shot...and the other 10% wish you would've shot worse". Are you a 90 percenter or a 10 percenter?

I don't mind if someone tells what they shot as long as they don't go into too much detail about every shot. I once asked a club pro what the best he had shot in competition and he said a 64, but almost apologetically said that it was "in Texas".

It was the way he said it, like it really didn't count because it wasn't in MI. I don't care where you shot a 64, it's still a great round.
By the way, I've had a couple MPGA events at my course, but for the life of me, I can't remember what the initials stand for. Mich Public Golfers Assoc?
