That sounds like my scramble. Except you had at least one decent golfer. We didn't have one. Just a bunch of random good shots from a bunch of hacks.

54, even in a scramble, is pretty amazing. Course must've not been hard, because birdies on par 4's or 3's aren't exactly that easy. I mean, you have four chances to hit a good shot, but even if your best shot is just ok (15 feet or so), you still have to make the but.

Well since you asked...
White tees, 6030 yards, rating 69.6, slope 129.
5 par 5's, 6 par 3's, 7 par 4's. Par 71.
They sold mulligans, we bought 10 ($50 worth) and we used them all, mainly on putts. I don't know how many the winning team bought.

The par 3's were tough. Long irons on most of them. We birdied 3 of them.
Birdied all the par 5's except for the one we eagled on an excellent 7 wood shot by me to within 6 feet. That was the only one we reached in 2.The par 5's all seemed to be over 500 yards.
We had some sort of wedge into all the par 4's we birdied, only birdied 3 of those.

This course is rated harder than my home course but I usually score better there.

My favorite shot of the day was on a par 5 where we were all in the trees, used my ball and I punched it up to 150, then I hit a 7 iron uphill into the wind that stuck about 2 feet from the pin. I flushed that sucker.

We hadn't figured out the flag placements yet and when we got up there the flag was on the back, I must have hit it 160.
