Who is the youngest player to shoot their age during a round in a PDGA event?

Stan shot under 40 at Horizon in Winston-Salem when he was in his 40s and likely did it earlier. I would check records there as the likely PDGA sanctioned event where the record could have been made. Alternate might be that course in VA where they used to have the big Duck golf event.
Another interesting record would be the oldest person to shoot a 1000 rated round on a course with an SSA at least equal to their age. I think Monroe is on track for that record and might do it at the Hall of Fame Classic next month since the Steady Ed course SSA is right at 60 which Tom just turned in January. I know Peter Shive has a few 1000 rated rounds but maybe not on a course with an SSA close to his age. I did it last year twice on a course with an SSA 1 or 2 higher than my age of 53 then.

I bet dozens of Masters players have shot their age at Horizons Park in Winston-Salem, NC. I've never played there, but judging from the SSA data, it looks like a ridiculously silly pitch-n-putt. Bull Run in Virginia, all 3145 feet of it, might be tougher.
Daryl Johnson from Oklahoma City shot his age twice in one tournament.. Age:49 (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=5583#Masters)
I shot a 44 at age 43 last year at Sneeky Pete :)

Horizons is very simple. LL once shot a 34 there (yes that is 2 aces and 16 birdies)

Larry Leonard shot a 34 at Horizons, but I do not know what age it was, prolly mid 30's. He is like 43 now.

Don't forget Geoff Lissaman in 1996 shot -17 at rum village!
At the PDGA Worlds!
Might be a record there!
Deano... :cool:

bull run is even easier than horizons- if there were a pdga event at bull run half the masters field would shoot their age or better.

Do 9 hole courses count? I have shot an 18 before. I also shot a 19 at a course with a few 400+ holes. :D

During a league round I shot a 38 when I was 42.
I shot a 40 when I was 45.
On our front 8 holes I shot a 15. Seven birdies and an ace. The course was pretty short though.
