Living in Michigan I get to play at least once a week from April thru October. I do travel on business and average about 75 rounds per year. I would like to increase that to around 300 rounds/year

Twice a week currently; Wed. or Thu. league, and on Saturday. I will, however, be going on a golfing trip next week for four days with one day being 36 holes. I probably play 65-75 times/year.

I play at least 4 times a week, sometimes up to 8 if I am playing more than 18 on weekend days. I am at the course every day when I'm not working but often I am just doing some 'free practice' (chipping and putting). If I am hurting I will just do a little practice and not play. I think I am all fixed up so I am planning on playing every day rain or shine, especially after my great round today!

I try and get out 3 or 4 times a week. Usually for 9 on the weekdays and 18 on a weekend day. I have a hookup where I can play for free at a place that has 2 courses, 36 holes near me. I'll get out there and play 9 after work with some people a few times a week.

Yeah my brother got married/kids the whole shebang and his game is ruined because of it.

If I can't play I still hit a range.

About once a week these days.

I wish i could play more, but I am in the middle of moving and starting work with a new company. Hopefully, my schedule will get more regular soon and I'll be able to play more.

I consider myself lucky...I'm married with two small kids and I get out to play 1-2 times a week. Fortunately my wife knows how much I love golf and supports my habit as long as I'm balancing family/work/golf. She'll be quick to let me know if I'm out of line :)

I'm a college kid and work at a near-by course so I get free golf there when the tee sheet is open. I have golfed 12 times since the beginning of June... though 10 of those have been in July, haha. I technically could go every morning (like 6 AM) to play, but I enjoy sleeping, and I usually don't play too well that early. I've done it a few times though.

I try to play as often as I have the time. That translates into about 3 times a week. I've only played twice this week so far, and only 9 holes each time. The weather has been crappy and I haven't been able to get out much when it wasn't raining. I'm shooting for 27 holes tomorrow though...

    • First off please forgive me if this is not a proper post or not in the proper location, still learning the ropes around here. Second, it's important that I mention I am very new to the game with only about 10 rounds of golf under my belt, most being 9 holes. Only this year have I started playing 18. That being said, I am hooked, love the game and am very eager to learn and improve. To give you an idea of my skill, the last 2 18 rounds I played were 110 and 105. Not great at all, however I am slowly improving as I learn. Had been having bad slicing issues with the driver and hybrids but after playing some more and hitting the range, I've been able to improve on that quite a bit and have been hitting more straight on average. Irons have always come easier to me as far as hitting straight for some reason. Wedges have needed a lot of improvement, but I practice chipping about 20-30 mins about 3-5 times a week and that's helped a lot. Today I went to the range and started to note down some distance data, mind you I am averaging the distances based off my best guess compared to the distance markers on the range. I do not currently own a range finder or tracker. From reading some similar posts I do understand that filling gaps is ideal, but I am having a some issues figuring out those gaps and understanding which clubs to keep and remove as some gaps are minimal between clubs. Below is an image of the chart I put together showing the clubs and average distances I've been hitting and power applied. For some reason I am hitting my hybrids around the same distances and I am not sure why. Wondering if one of them should be removed. I didn't notice a huge loft difference either. The irons I have are hand me downs from my grandfather and after playing with them a bit, I feel like they're just not giving me what could potentially be there. The feel is a bit hard/harsh and underwhelming if that makes sense and I can't seem to get decent distances from them. Wondering if I should be looking to invest in some more updated irons and if those should be muscle backs or cavity backs? My knowledge here is minimal. I have never played with modern fairway woods, only the classic clubs that are actually wood and much smaller than modern clubs. I recently removed the 4 and 5 woods from my bag as I was never using them and I don't hit them very well or very far. Wondering if I should look into some more modern fairway wood options? I appreciate any feedback or advice anyone is willing to give, please forgive my lack of knowledge. I am eager to learn! Thank you.  
    • I would think that 3 in a row with the same players might get some behind the scenes examination from the SCGA if they were suspect.  Are there any clubs questioning the results?
    • What simple fact? A golf match is not a coin flip — there is a fact for you. I'm trying to help you, and you're throwing out what could easily be called sour grapes. Come with FACTS, not weak analogies. Then you've got nothing. Hopefully they've done a better job of making their case. 😛 
    • It's pretty close. The odds of a 50/50 shot going your way 21 times are greater than 1 in a million!  I guess your point is, that simple fact is not enough to declare these guys dirty rotten sandbaggers. I disagree, but fair enough. I posted it here on the message board to get different perspectives, after all.  I probably won't be digging further into specific scores. I have no dog in this fight beyond a generalized contempt for sandbagging. With that said, it would not surprise if a lot of clubs shared my concern and were grousing about it to the SCGA.
