Not sure if this has been discussed in the past, but do you walk or ride?

I will always walk unless it is raining or extremely hot.

Depends on the course. Hilly ones I tend to take a cart. I usually shoot better on the front when I walk, and shoot better on the back when I have a cart.

I always walk regardless of conditions, just doesn't feel the same to be in a cart.

I ride because I do not have a choice as most of us dont in central FL.

I wouldnt want to walk my home course anyway. The 7000 something from the blues is probably at least doubled with the space between greens and tees

Mostly walk unless the cart is free. Usually doubles price of a round if a ride so I choose not to.

This is probably gonna make some of the older members mad, but here it goes. I like to ride because I've got bad knees. It runs in my family, but I get tendonitis really easily when I walk. The impact of carrying a bag on my knees takes it toll and I can barely walk when its over

Walked over half my rounds prior to Januarry of this year. I screwed up my left knee and haven't walked much since.

Things are getting better although wearing this restrictive brace isn't comfortable....it allows me to play.

Just depends what I want to accomplish. If I need to play a quick round then I ride. I feel if I walk I play more consistent and stay in the game more though. I usually score better if I walk, but I tend to hit better shots later in the round if I ride. Maybe I just need to get back into shape? haha...

I will ride 100% of the time. Most of the courses that I play don't allow walking. Even the ones that allow it, I still won't do it. Why? Just lazy I guess. My biggest reason is because I don't play very much at all. I look at a golf outing as a time to relax and enjoy the day and the company. The last thing I want to do is suffer through the 90 degree heat while walking. Not fun. I just want to enjoy the day of golfing. I am 35, in relatively good shape, I just don't want to walk.

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

walk, riding is too expensive , and for some reason i tend to rush things when I ride.

    • I  had to return to boast  just a  bit. Everyone  knows  i thought  this  is  how the Championship should  be decided. Match play is far  better than stroke  play to determine a  champion and  its  much closer to most sports  playoffs. Lose and you are  out.     Promotion, relegation and match play: PGA Tour unveils radical new structure The PGA Tour has revealed its planned changes to its competitive model, schedule and playoffs, changes that will be more substantial than any in the Tour's half-century-long history. How will the PGA Tour series wrap up its season? The current PGA Tour playoff format consists of three stroke-play events, concluding with the Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. Starting in 2028, the Tour's playoff system will feature match play, and will rotate through various courses. Further details will be revealed at this year's Tour Championship next month.
    • Posted a couple swings here. I think my attempt to blend the movement still results in a more “around” back swing?
    • I never heard dislike for them.  From my perspective, they are just like any other club. Though, they were always probably over-priced, until recently as other club manufacturers have been raising prices the past 5+ years. You had to wait for them to go on sale, which you can get them closer to other club manufacturers.  They sell good clubs. Nothing crazy..
    • Why do so many people dislike PXG clubs and constantly criticize them? All the folks at my club and especially online, I never hear good things about them except from people who bought them and defend them. They look fine to me but curious is there some sort of quality issue or is it just stereotyping the buyers.
    • I have the LM1 launch monitor and I’ve been very impressed. I agree with your assessment and it’s very accurate for me and ease of use is wonderful. The price point of $199 is very hard to beat with this form factor and performance. I was previously using a PRGR.
