I normally play only a few courses multiple times a year, but this year I've started to play different courses around my area.

So my question is, how many different courses would you guys say you play during a normal year?

Driver: :cobra: BiO Cell (10.5º)

Wood: :ping: G15 3 (15.5°)

Hybrids: :callaway: Diablo Edge: 3 (21º), 4 (24º)

Wedges: :cleveland:588 RTX CB 50º, Paradise Black Chrome II Sand Wedge 56º

I play 80-100 rounds a year. Probably 80% are on 7 or 8 courses, but that still leaves another dozen courses played throughout the average year. Call it 20 different courses in a year.

In David's bag....

Driver: Titleist 910 D-3;  9.5* Diamana Kai'li
3-Wood: Titleist 910F;  15* Diamana Kai'li
Hybrids: Titleist 910H 19* and 21* Diamana Kai'li
Irons: Titleist 695cb 5-Pw

Wedges: Scratch 51-11 TNC grind, Vokey SM-5's;  56-14 F grind and 60-11 K grind
Putter: Scotty Cameron Kombi S
Ball: ProV1

So far in 2012, 3 courses. My home course, the course where my daughter and I have passes, and the one where our company tournament was played. I used to be one of those guys who tried to play a different course every time, but I like being a member and knowing most of the other members. I typically only have time for a few holes on the way home so I'd be paying full prices for partial rounds at another course.

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

I'm slightly jealous of the number of times some of the people in warmer climates can golf in a year.

In Calgary we're lucky to have 3 and a half good months to golf so when Im busy and can only get out once a week, that gives me about a dozen rounds. Some summers I can get out twice a week and may end up getting around 25-30 rounds but thats about it. I play at least half of my golf at 1 course, and the rest of the golf is at places I'll play once a year. Usually between 7 - 10 different courses.

I do know people who get in 100 rounds around here in one summer but I don't have the luxury of playing every day.

I played @ 17 different courses over the past year. Some are on my scorecard link and a few are not (either didn't program them or they were scrambles). I didn't realize i played that many. I played about 60 times. :-D

Cobra LTDx 10.5* | Rad Tour 16* | Tour Edge 19* | Titleist U500 4-23* | T100 5-P | Vokey SM7 50/8* F, 54/10* S, SM8 58/10* S | Odyssey 2 Ball Blade | Vice Pro Plus

I like to play different courses. I also travel on business. In the past 12 months I have played in Canada, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Morroco, United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Vietnam and Japan. In this period I played over 50 courses I had not played previously.

I've played 4 different courses the last two weeks.  Since moving to Florida in December, I've probably played 25 different courses.  After playing the same course to death the last 14 years, I am really enjoying playing the variety of courses here.

The most difficult distance in golf is the six inches between your ears.

I belong to a private club so, from a finacial standpoint, it pays to play at home. If I play 65 times, 55-60 are at my course. I rarely play public courses unless I'm on a golf trip. I'm lucky enough to get to play some of the local private courses (Philly area) in team matches and with friends.

    • How come the marked shots on the picture add up to 366 yards and the label says 325? Are you playing it at 325? In any case, that hole is narrow with a capital NARROW. If those woods are lost ball territory, then I think you hit from the tee whatever club is accurate enough that you'll be able to hit the fairway "most" of the time. That could even be a wedge potentially, especially depending on how restrictive the trees back near the tee are. I might seriously consider playing this hole as 8 iron 6 iron or so. There's more room up by the green than the fairway, so save the longer club for the second shot.
    • Day 555, May 10, 2024 Practice outside at WW, hitting shots here and there. Good day.
    • I took a big step back last season in terms of scoring. I felt I'd plateaued and committed to another round of lessons and working on meaningful swing changes. Went from a 7.9 to an 11. Back down in the 10s. Just starting to see some of the feel of improvement show up in scores. In fact a few rounds ago I had my best round, both score wise and ball striking and putting, in a while! Shot 79 with a mental breakdown finishing bogey-bogey-bogey on a tough three hole stretch where I go scared of the water blowing up my 70s round and yanked three drivers in a row after pumping it long down the middle all day and then hit two of three approaches scared-yanked away from  water as well. Feeling like I can put some 70s rounds together this season!
    • Considering I only played a single round of 9 holes last year and only a handful of rounds of 9 holes in the 6 years before that. Now playing 18 hole on average ever 2 weeks this season. Definitely improved. Not by a drastic amount, but definitely improving. Hitting more pars and bogeys. Driving straighter etc. Practice helps! :D
    • And yet, unlike a politician the only one we con are ourselves.😄  Having said that, the stories we tell ourselves are also the most potent, good or bad. So,  for me the answer is always a resounding "Yes!".
