Question for the masses, if you've only played 9/18 holes of a course, e.g. a 9 hole round, can you still claim you've played the course?

This is the deepest question that has ever been asked on this site.

The course is 18 holes. You haven’t played the course. You’ve played some holes at the course.

The course is [emoji[emoji6]] holes. You haven’t played the course. You’ve played some holes at the course.

But can he say he hasn’t played the course if he has played half of it?

Yes, I was more curious about how many from the greater Melbourne area would make the drive every time they want to play a round. Assume its ~1hr+.

The club is gonna be pumping for the next 8-10 weeks. Will report more tomorrow.

which course are you wanting to say you've played?

I'm just doing a pulse check.

I played a 9 hole round at Bay views yesterday, I've never been there before. I've played at Bayviews seems to be the Bigfooty acceptable phrasing to use

There is a threshold here.

If you’d said I played 9 holes at ANGC or Cypress Point, I’d say yeah you’ve played the course.

Bay views? No sir.

I disagree.

You could say I played 9 holes at ANGC. Perhaps have a photo as well. But played it? No

If you played the back nine, maybe.

The front? No.

What is your opinion about playing a Composite course of a club/course? Should that count as playing ?

You've not played PK until you've played the North and South course.

Equally, you've not played Putt Putt Mermaid Beach until you've played the fun run, jungle trail and waterways courses.

I don't make the rules.

Composite is fine because it’s 18 holes.

Yes. I’m just pointing out there are in effect three courses on offer kinda

Composite is fine because it’s 18 holes.

Yes on its own. So when people say they’ve played royal Melb they have played really two of the three. Unless they’ve played composite the. It’s likea bonus point

I just want to circle back to this. I kinda feel that someone can say they have played at say Moonah Links if having only played the legends course. BUT it must immediately be followed by "legends course only).

A discussion around the codification of the Rules of Golf Course Boasting is no place for joking around.
