List of bogey types

In the Mario Golf series, there are many types of Bogeys, though they are all considered bad scores. There are eight types of Bogeys, but only three are actually called so.

Bogey


A Bogey, (sometimes called +1 in real life), is a score that is one over Par. A Bogey is not a good score, for it adds to your score by 1. In order for a player to get a Bogey, he or she must have one extra shot in play at the end of the hole, (for instance: the player gets the ball in the hole with six strokes on a 5 PAR hole). The player's character shows disappointment of their score at the end of the hole.

Double Bogey
A Double Bogey, (sometimes called +2 in real life), is a score that is two over Par, making it a little worse than a regular Bogey. A Double Bogey is a bad score since it worsens the player's score by 2. In order for a player to get a Double Bogey, he or she must have two extra shots in play at the end of the hole. The player's character pulls a temper tantrum and acts out childishly with this score or worse.

Triple Bogey
A Triple Bogey, (sometimes called +3 in real life), is a score that is three over Par, making it a very bad score. It is the last Bogey referred to in the game. A Triple Bogey is very bad since it worsens the player's score by 3. In order for a player to get a Triple Bogey, he or she must have three extra shots in play at the end of the hole.

+4
A +4, (sometimes called a quadruple bogey in real life), is a very bad score that is four over Par (as its name implies). It is very bad because it worsens the player's score by 4. In order for a player to get a +4, he or she must have four extra shots in play at the end of the hole.

+5
A +5, (sometimes called a quintuple bogey in real life), is an extremely bad score that is five of Par (as its name implies). It is extremely bad since it worsens the player's score by 5. In order for a player to get a +5, he or she must have five extra shots in play at the end of the hole.

+6
A +6, (rarely called a sextuple bogey in real life, and also the highest "bogey") is a severely bad score that is six over Par (as its name implies). It is severely bad because it worsens the player's score by 6. In order for a player to get a +6, he or she must have six extra shots in play at the end of the hole.

+7
A +7 is the second-to-worst score in golf; it is seven over Par (as its name implies). It is considered to be beyond awful since it worsens the player's score by 7. In order for a player to get a +7, he or she must have seven extra shots in play at the end of the hole.

+8
A +8 is the absolute worst score in golf; it is eight over Par (as its name implies). It is very hard for the player to come back to a good score after getting a +8. It worsens the player's score by eight. In order for a player to get a +8, he or she must have eight extra shots in play at the end of the hole. If the player can't make the hole with eight shots over Par, the game will automatically give the player a +8, for there is no +9.

Trivia

 * Bogey is a British term that means "snot", or "booger", which is also considered a bad thing.
