I live in New England and were obviously in the "seasonal" area of the country for golf, but I was bale to get in 98 rounds last year.

A guy at my club played 217 rounds from April to Nov...he ended up being #17 in the country on ghin.com for most rounds played in a seasonal area....

That's pretty crazy, doing the math off the top of my head assuming that the season is from April 1st to November 30th, that would be 214 days. He would have had to play every single day with two rounds in one day in some instances.

I played one... I just started playing golf again. For the last previous 7years, I only played one round a year. Obviously this year, I'm already well past that at 16 rounds. Handicap is tumbling nicely as well...

In 2002, my last full year, I played 230 rounds. Our season is basically all year but the majority were played between February and November. There quite a few days when I played two rounds.

i probably played between 100-150 rounds last year (9 hole and 18 hole rounds), the vast majority were 9 hole rounds after work. hopefully i will get in closer to 200 this year, as i won't be working any overtime.

Over 100.... not sure how much over though. Our season ran from mid March to mid November. This year it ends on the 31st of October for some reason.

I played enough to satisfy me. I played upwards of 4 times a week (not 18 each time, sometimes only had time for 9 after school or work). I got out as much as I could.

I think I played about 8-10 rounds with my own ball. Probably about another 8-10 rounds that were scrambles/shambles/goofing off, etc. My company 'sponsors' a few local charity/fundraiser type tournaments. Meaning they donate the money and I usually end up getting to play a 18 hole scramble or something. I don't get out on my own nearly as much as I would like.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

Last year I got to play 85 rounds. These were spread out over 12 states and 5 countries. I travel some on business and try to get a round or two in while away from home.

I'm sure I played close to 100 18 hole rounds and probably another 30-40 rounds of 9 holes or less.

Hmm, well I managed a whole 5 rounds. I'm never in the same place as my clubs, so I cant get out much. My goal this year is 30 rounds.

75-100. I'm sure that will go up this year provided my back stays healthy.

I play quite a bit, but I'm not even in the league with most of the previous posters. I played around 55 rounds last year, plus about 15 9-hole rounds. I would love to play more, but money, time and weather limit me (mostly money). I have only been able to play 1 full round and 1 9-hole round so far this year due to weather conditions. When the weather has been good enough to play I've had other things I had to do (work mostly) and the rest of the time it's either been too cold or snowy (and I'll play down to around 35*). This year I may be able to play more, but since I don't enjoy playing weekends by myself or with random strangers it partially depends on my golf partners (I kinda life playing alone on weekdays). I have about 11 different people I play with regularly, so it's usually possible to find someone to play with, but not all since they are not as willing to play in cold or rain as I am.

I played 16 rounds last year. Our season is April to October. I hope to play once a week this year. I've got a two month old so we'll see how that works.

if you play sat and sun... thats 104... give or take weather conditions and only 1 round per day... id be generous in saying something under a hundred rounds in a season would be tops for me

I played 8-10 rounds last year. It drives my buddies crazy, because when I do play I still keep it around par. Golf just isn't the most important thing in my life, so my play has decreased over the last 8 years.
I actually enjoy helping my kids on their games more than playing myself.

    • I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.  
    • Day 48, June 23.  After work today, I took 25 minutes in my practice room;  6-iron, same everything as yesterday except the time and count. 
    • Well, this is interesting.  I think we discovered a few months ago that I haven't been following professional golf in a while (my confusion about Scotty's footwork confirmed that), so at least as I aim to follow a bit more I'll get something new to learn with all of you.  My very quick read of Erik's summary makes me think this new Challenger series fits somewhere between Korn Ferry and the Championship (not Champions, but I know I'm going to make that mistake a few times if I'm not careful!).   My recollection is that there were already second-tier events among the PGA Tour;  the Bob Hope didn't have the same quality of field as the event at Riviera (whose current name I forget, although now that I say that, I realize the Palm Springs event hasn't been called the Bob Hope in a few years either).   With the absence of the FedEx (if I'm reading that correctly), does that mean no more FedEx Cup at all? Hopefully I'll have time later in 2026 to sit down and see what we're in for in 2027, where one of my goals already is to follow more professional golf.
    • The highlights as I see them: Championship and Challenger Series The creation of the PGA Tour and the PGB Tour, in the words of Joel Dahmen a few years ago. They're calling them the Championship Series (23-24 events) and the Challenger Series (20+ events). Both run February to August. They feel this will achieve three things: increasing the consistency and quality of fields across the season creating a clear system for players to earn and retain status and delivering a more structured and competitive experience for fans and partners—all in an effort to strengthen meritocracy. Championship Series Structure and Eligibility The 23-24 events includes the Players, majors, season-ending events, and the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. These will be 72-hole events with a 36-hole cut to the top 65 and ties and purses of $20M+. 120 players without an alternate list. 90 players (roughly) from the previous year and 20 players promoted from the Challenger Series. Full eligibility will be finalized later this year. Sites (cities) to be finalized soon, but 10 of the 15 courses have already been determined. Postseason: includes retention and relegation and concludes with match play. The Tour Championship will also be played across a rotation of prestigious courses. Challenger Series Structure and Eligibility 20+ events. Running concurrently. Will feature players fighting their way back to the Championship Series or players graduating and on the upswing from the Korn Ferry Tour. Many of these events will be current PGA Tour courses. About 7 of the Challenger Series events will be during off weeks for the Championship Series with elevated purses and visibility. Purses of at least $4M, with cuts similar to the Champ series. 144 player fields. Competitive Fields for Both Series Players will be eligible for only one series at a time: Championship Series Players are not eligible for Challenger Series events. Championship Series members will have a known schedule with all events having the same eligibility. Players and Majors will have their own eligibility criteria. Championship Series players don't have to play all events. This begs the question about, say, the Canadian Open, and other "home-town" events that players might want to play, even if they're Challenger Series events. Will releases be granted? Promotion and Relegation At least 90 players will be retained in the Championship Series, and 20 players will be promoted from the Challenger Series each year. Battlefield promotion for two-time winners from the Challenger Series. Players relegated from the Championship Series will have a "last chance" opportunity to retain status, or will go to the Challenger Series. Criteria will be finalized before the start of the 2027 season. Points System New points system (not FedExCup points). Separate points systems for the Championship and Challenger Series. Elevated points in the Challenger Series for off-weeks on the Championship Series. More details tk. Elevated International Events in the Fall The fall schedule will include a limited series of elevated international events with top players from the Championship Series, with the intent to deliver in partnership with the DP World Tour as part of the Strategic Alliance. Last Chance Series The Tour will develop a “last chance” series of 4-6 events in the fall, with a limited number of spots on the Championship Series available for top finishers. Eligibility will include players relegated from the Championship Series, Challenger Series players, and other categories to be determined. Q-School continues, as do the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Also, Brian Rolapp is the new commissioner as of January 1, 2027.
