Guinness World Record Attempt: Most Holes in 24 Hours

[Connor Jones]

My guess is, it was probably towards the end of the ridiculous amount of holes he played. I'd imagine fatigue would really start to kick in.

I have a feeling having a couple of pairs of really good running shoes that really fit your feet well and 8 or so fresh pairs of socks might help... with a fresh pair of socks and a change of shoes every few hours. Gotta be miserable once blisters come into play.

Okay... how do you take a '7' on a 100' hole?

There is that hill that leads down to the water on holes 5-6. By 3 a.m. walking even on the slightest elevation hurt like hell. I would take a penalty stroke and take my next shot from the previous lie. I missed three times and finally waked to my shot after the third missed. So a total of five shots (drive, missed putt, missed putt, missed putt, drop in) with two penalties. It was quite a bummer.

Different kinds of shoes can make a difference too, on days where I'm playing even 100+ holes I'll switch from hiking shoes to running shoes in the middle of the day, it keeps my feet from getting sore and puts the pressure on different parts of my feet.
