No video.

I wish I could have seen it myself.

I had one player come up to me after the round and say "If I knew he was gonna do that, I wouldn't have played and just followed him to watch it happen!"

Whoa...I have no idea how your course looks but he went on one helluva birdie run. He birdied the ENTIRE BACK NINE. That's crazy awesome.

 

[The Ox]

This is the course, the 39 was on the short layout (par 54).

Rob, you have Jerm at -19 on the pdga site. He shot 39, an amazing -15. Did you maybe put course par at 58, instead of 54?

Crazy round! Hard to belief that the holes he missed were 2 and 3. Those are probably the easiest birdie holes!

Actually, it's the total par for both rounds.

Each round has the correct par entered but it does not show it that way.

The system seems to default any un-played round to a ghosted 54.

The first round at Nest was par 58, so that's -4, plus today's -15 is -19.

I can't explain why or how the system does that.

Damn that is a legit round

According to his Facebook post, he had a dirty spit-out on 2. The other 2 holes that he took a 3, he missed putts from inside the circle.

Rob, the 1100+ rating is quite accurate.

Wow. That's tough. I completely understood the miss on 4. That's a tough hole that can go badly quick.

14 straight birdies is just insane!

 

[RKelly]

Wasn't putting anything/ anybody down. Just saw his -19 and my -6, and knew it was -15 and -2 (yes, I sucked), and thought you made a simple mistake when entering the course par. Just didn't want to see you having to say "sorry, it's only 1060". I had no idea about the" ghost" scores for rounds not played.

Jerm made two uphill 35' putts on #2 with the first spiting out from the middle

the only bad throw he had was his drive on #3

At first seeing a 39 makes me think of the time schusterick played that pitch and putt and was close to 18 under for one round. But the other scores being in the 50s, in open suggests it wasn't an easy course. Incredible round!

Schusterick did shoot -18 at Claystone Park in Macon, GA last year: Round 3

I can almost guarantee that Big Jerm's round is more impressive than that. Eastway isn't exactly a monster of a course (it is par 54, after all), but it's certainly not a pitch and putt. It has a number of holes that are not very easy to birdie, and for someone to get almost all of them is very impressive.
