Ill play 9 usually a couple times a week and usually play once on the weekend. Im single with no kids though so no extra responsibilies, working overtime(i work at night) and weather lately usually limit it to no more than that but sometimes as much as 4 times a week. If i play too much it simply gets too expensive then, nice medium is 3 times a week. I have other hobbies too and friends and family on the weekends usually. If i play at least a couple times a week I'll still stay somewhat sharp. My weekend playing partner might be not playing for a long time, about to have his 3rd child this week so I he'll be busy for a while.

I play 9 every monday while my daughter takes a lesson, the course is usually wide open and I practice more than I actually play. Usually I can get in another 9 during the week, and I've been playing 18 about every other weekend. I chip in the yard a couple of times a week also.

Typically I play 18 on every weekend (usually Sunday), plus 9 on Tuesday evening. This summer I have been teaching my friend's son to play and that usually results in another 9-18 holes on Saturday on a par-3 course. During the summers I also usually average about 1 day a month that I take off work (or a holiday) when I play 18 as well.

Once or twice a week after work, but the weekends are a different story, the guy's in my foursome have played 54 holes on Saturday and 36 on Sunday or the other way around, which depends on everybody's weekend work schedule. Let me tell you Monday AM after 90 holes of golf is tough, but come Tues.or Wed. I'm ready to go again. Maybe that's to much golf and maybe why I can't seem to play a little better.

I typically play once a week during peak season in the desert (October-March) and then play twice a week when the temperatures go up and the greens fees come down (April-September).

I usually play 2-3 times per week with at least one range practice in between. Being retired, I can pretty much play as I want to. The weather has been so hot here in Houston that I play only in the evenings when the day is cooling off. My hand arthritis also limits my play somewhat, but that is better now with the oversized grips. Last evening my last putt on #18 was just visible in the last of the twilight; a nice way to end the day.

I try to get in 18 holes every Saturday, or if the weekend is tied up for some reason with the wife, I'll leave work early and go during the week. I could probably get in more if our local area had a golf league, but there isn't one.

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 play 5 to 6 times a week. 12:30 during the week and 8:00 on the weekend. I generally take a day off to do some things around the house, or just to take a break. Ive already posted just over 100 scores to the GHIN and we didn't start posting till sometime in March. And we have had alot of rain outs.

    • Day 8: 3/30/25 After some poor putting yesterday I worked on some distance control drills today along with putting through 50 mm gates.
    • So I am aware that "the committee is allowed to set its own standards of player conduct in a code of conduct adopted as a local rule" (rule 1.2b) I also understand that there are some aspects that are allowed to be entered, and some that are not allowed.  My question specifically is: In which form does this code of conduct need to be available? Is it enough for someone to say "that's part of our code of conduct", or is it a requirement, that the code of conduct is in written form? Also, is there a need that the local rule points to the code of conduct in any way?   For better understanding: I'm playing competition and the next course that we play has a "no smoking policy". I don't have a problem with it, as I don't smoke anyway, but one of my team-mates does, and someone told him "You'll get disqualified if you smoke on the course".   Now I have looked at their local rules and there is no reference to a "code of conduct". I'm not sure if they even have an official "code of conduct" that states that smoking is not allowed.   I fully agree that he SHOULD respect this request from the club, but I am wondering if the club would really be allowed to DQ this player for this, if it's not properly documented in their local rules/code of conduct?  This is an official national amateur tournament, so not just something organized by a club for its members.
    • A few months back I purchased the following swing aid on Amazon ($130). It is solidly made of steel and heavy and stable in use. I use it both at the range and at home. Swing Plate Dual PRO by Jamie Brittain - Swing Analyzer Aid - Fits Standard 8mm Alignment Rod Sticks - Teaching Swing Plane Perfector - Indoor/Outdoor Golfing Practice. This winter I set a goal for myself to improve my backswing/downswing to be more consistent and on plane. I had a two way miss with my approach shots this past golf season. I have a hitting set-up in my garage, but I needed something to provide feedback while swinging the club. I came across the Swing Plate while browsing YouTube.   I set it up with the correct angles for my 8 iron. I started out with just the back rod in place, which prevents me from getting too far inside on the backswing. Started out slow and as I got comfortable increased my swing speed. Now I also came across a YouTube video on building a better backswing and getting more width in the backswing and added that to my practice. That video is here:    This video is a bit wordy since you are basically a fly on the wall as Ian gets a lesson. It took a few replays to be able to get the substance of the instruction. It was well worth the effort. Over the last two weeks I have been able to get out on the course and gauge how successful my practice has been. Overall, my consistency with approach shots has improved greatly. Incorporating the added width in my swing has also added a few yards to all my clubs.  What has your off-season training been like?
