The other day I was playing with a lurker to this site, the lurker is the son of a prominent member. When he was discussing the site he made a comment that it seems many on this board don't get to the course much.

I realize for some of you your club is just opening from the winter but when it is open how often do you get out? I don't get to play as much as I like (does anyone?) but I try to walk a few holes a few nights a week and play once a week. Tonight after work I hit a bucket and walked 4 holes before dark.

    Sam,


            I play a similar schedule as you - a few holes many eves after I leave the office and one round a week. Unless I am on a golf getaway at which 36 per day is the norm.

Getaway is atleast 36 a day!

[Mac Plumart]

I play at least twice a week.

[Greg Chambers]

I try really hard to play 18 holes a week...if I'm lucky it's twice that.  I used to play almost every day...work gets in the way these days...

[Ken Moum]

I think I played about 150 times last year. Something like 120 posted to GHIN, the rest wer out of season or not under the ROG.

But then I have no life.

[Scott Warren]

About 80 rounds a year. Generally about five times a month, but also golf binges on trips, when 36 a day is normal.

Though as of this weekend my wife and I have moved from a 20-min drive from my club to just 1km (0.6 of a mile) from the clubhouse, so I expect to get out a bit more and practice a lot more often (starting from a base of never) before and after work.

[Sean_A]

I am guessing I played about 55 games the past 12 months - up from the previous few years due to the great winter weather.  Although, most of my golf is not at my club.

Ciao

[Derek Dirksen]

60 to 80 hrs a week on the course.  lol, it is still in dirt though.

Sam:

The answers you've got so far are probably not from the guys IN the golf business, or from the guys with kids.

As a proud member of the golf business, I usually play between 20 and 40 rounds a year.  And that's probably more than the average!  I would play a little bit more if I lived someplace with a longer golf season ... or if I didn't spend so much time in airports!

[Tim Bert]

I play 25 to 30 rounds a year, with at least 20 of those rounds taking place in one of three golf weekends. So aside from those three glorious long weekends each year I average less than a round a month.

Married with 2 kids...not in the golf business, rather a consumer of golf products and services...at least twice a week.   

[Carl Johnson]

Three to four days a week, although not always to play 9 or 18.  Sometimes just to "practice" and hang out.  Hey, I'm retired.

[William_G]

about 50 rounds per year, don't play every week, pick my spots and play in streaks

have played since I was 8

[Mark Chaplin]

Tom that's no excuse, landing at virtually every airport you seem to fly over a course at the end of the runway!

[Jim Tang]

I'm usually somewhere between 30 & 40 rounds per year, May to September.

80% of my rounds are local, here in Chicago.  The other 20% come from an annual golf trip or two.  This year, Bandon and Kingsley, and I'm hoping I'll have closer to 50 rounds.

[Jeff Shelman]

I play a lot.

Weather permitting, I play both days on the weekend and I probably average two more nights after work per week. After work, I sometimes only play 9 or 13 holes (No. 13 green is near the clubhouse). Or I might just practice.

From April until mid-October, I rarely go more than three or four days without at least playing nine holes after work.

[K. Krahenbuhl]

I'm a 120-150 round/year guy.  About twice/week with a few binge trips mixed in.

I am pretty similar to Jeff.

Play a skins games on sunday and usually 18 on an fri afternoon.  Add to that 2 days after work where I either practice or walk nine (more often than not, playing a couple balls or with a healthy dose of mulligans).

[Cory Lewis]

I'm a 120-150 round/year guy.  About twice/week with a few binge trips mixed in.

ditto.  Tom is right, I tend to be the exception in the golf business rather than the rule.  My boss plays about 20 rounds a year and most of the pros I know in the area play about 20 to 30 times a year.

Cory plays well,plays fast and plays a lot. Unless you are paying strict attention you will miss his pre-shot routine. If I havn`t listed enough reasons to want to play with him I`ll add one more which is you won`t meet a better guy.

[Steve Lang]

 
Year-round, sat & sunday if not raining, + 0-3 times during week after work as able .. used to play more when ms sheila was travelling for her job, and 18 instead of 9 after work

[Shane Wright]

Married with two in diapers, however, the two year old loves practicing with me so hoping my rounds go up in the next couple of years with him alongside. 

I play about 25 rounds a year. Probably 8-10 are tournaments, 8-10 on one golf trip and 5+ while traveling for work.  I squeeze in some additional 9 hole rounds here and there.  I get out and practice at least twice a week either early morning or lunch. Evenings when not traveling for work and weekends are pretty much exclusively family time.

I live vicariously thru many of you until my oldest can play.  Our goal is to one day have a three generation round at Ballybunion.

[Sam Morrow]

If I played as fast as Cory I'd play 500 rounds a year.

[Duncan Cheslett]

Having only taken up the game aged 50 I feel like I've got a lot of catching up to do!

I play in the club comp every Saturday and one full round midweek - usually visiting another club. I also get to the course most other weekdays for an hour or so either before or after work when light permits for a little practice over a few holes.

On Sundays I often play with my 11 year-old son. My wife is also threatening to come along now that I have upgraded to family membership...
