The average Golf score still hovers around 100.It has not changed since the early 1900's despite improvements in course design,equipment and balls.It is estimated that about 80% of the people who play golf never break 100 (THIS IS NOT TRUE AND HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN DETAIL ON GOLF NETWORK- THIS MAY BE TRUE IF YOU INCLUDE EVERYONE WHO PLAYED ONE TIME, BUT IF YOU TOOK A SAMPLING OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE PLAYED IN ONE YEAR IT WOULD BE 50% OR LESS) .Of course the pros usually shoot below par but they are a small percentage of the total people who play.So if you shoot in the 90's or better you are in an elite minority.

Par for most 9 holes ranges from 34-37. Going under the assumption that the average golfer doesn't break 95-100, 47-50 is a good bet.
