A ‘bogey golfer’ is a player whose score is an average of a bogey per hole, or one over par per hole. So if they were playing on a golf course with a par of 72, a bogey golfer would have an average score of 90. While this might seem like a poor score compared to the other types of golfers we’ve discussed in this article, it’s worth bearing in mind that most golfers don’t even break 100. The USGA (United States Golf Association) has a more specific definition for ‘bogey golfer’. In their eyes a bogey golfer is a player with a handicap of between 17.5 to 22.4 strokes for males, and 21.5 to 26.4 for females.
