Is this a trick question?  Assuming it is not, count the number of par 4s & par 5s and there's the answer.

Very strange first post. I'm guessing he wants to count a GIR on a par 3 as a FIR but I see no reason why one would want to do that.

If you hit every fairway on the par 4's and 5's and you hit every green on the par 3's,,,,how many fairways did you hit during this round?

Well, assuming a typical par 72, 14 fairways.  Now if one wants to count hitting fairways multiple times while playing a par 5, etc... the number could be larger but generally the statistic of "Fairways Hit" only counts tee shots on par 5's and par 4's.

All of them. Since we don't know how many par 4 and par 5 holes are on the course then an exact number would be an assumption.

All of them.  FIR aren't counted on par 3 holes, so however many par 4/5 holes there are is how many fairways you hit.

Funny thread....................all kidding aside, most people track fairways hit as a percentage!!     On a traditional championship course, 14 is standard, but not always the case.   My previous home course had 3-5s........3-4s....and 3-3s on the back.    A perfect day was hitting 13-13 fairways in spite of it being a par 72 course.

With that said, the thread originator game me a chuckle with how the question was asked..LOL

    • after some years experimenting around, I've settled on a mixed bag of mostly Pat Simmons vintage Tiger Sharks (the ones with the blue enamal on back of the clubheads): 3 thru 9 iron, + 3 wedges (PW, sand, chipper). Those super heavy clubheads really help me get my swing down and thru the ball. Also I carry an old Taylor 18-degree rescue club, 17-degree and 14 degree ImagineGolf metalwoods, and the famous Pat Simmons "alien" 1-iron. Finally a real brick-on-a-stick, the big-headed Bettinardi Ben Hogan model putter which is excellent for taking the break out of short putts and getting the ball hole high on long ones. Wait....is that 15 clubs? Oh well....
    • this topic brought to mind one my favorite golf-spectator memories. Back when, living in Santa Barbara CA, parked in my yellow cab just behind the 10th tee  (c. 380 yard par 4) at SB Muni golf course while eating lunch. A twosome comes by, and first up is this fat little mexican guy who takes a kinda squirelly practice swing, then addresses the ball and bashes a long, high, perfectly straight drive up to w/in about 5 yards of the green. Other guy is dressed to the 9's, pulls out what looks like a $300 driver....and hits a maybe 150-yard pop fly. Slams clubhead to the ground and yells, "it's fat! It's fat! Everything is fat today!!"  And that's how I learned what a "fat" shot is.
    • day 57. Technique practice in the net. Really trying to slow down. 
    • It may not be surprising that in the previous 7,064 posts, this particular point has been discussed. To which I will counter: If we're talking about results, why only the majors? Unless you know something that I don't, neither of us are in any position to judge whether Woods or Nicklaus lived their overall life better, not that such a thing is even objectively measurable, nor is it relevant to the discussion.
    • As we've had to tell other people, the topic is which is the better GOLFER, not human being.
