Bogey
Colonel Bogey was a mythical golfer. As an amateur with lofty goals, he held himself to play every hole of a given course within par. This is where golfers got the term “bogey.”
Today, the definition of “bogey” has changed from meaning par, to one stroke over par. It is still the score that a good amateur should achieve on any given course, with par being the score a professional should achieve.
