The umbrella score

Number one was intelligent guess at second stab. Five was solid at second stab but no idea at first stab. four was very wishy wahy. 2 and 3 were very solid.
Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.
