Depends on the course. I golf a lot in Wichita, KS, they have very flat courses and easy to walk, but in here in Kansas City a lot of the courses are very hilly and difficult to walk. Also the newer ones aren't walking friendly, several hundred yard from green to tee box.

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?

I walk whenever I get the chance. Thankfully, most LA courses are very walkable - some to the point what I wonder why anyone who isn't disabled would consider a riding cart. However, sometimes I play in the Irvine area, which doesn't seem to allow walking at any courses I've been to.

I'll walk over riding any day with my Bag Boy Express 3 wheeler. I play much better when I walk also, none of that rushed feeling.

Where in Irvine can you walk? I'm looking for such a course that I can play with my Irvine friends and still walk.

Hey y'all,

In the past I would always walk on solo practice rounds and generally ride during social rounds.

I've been riding every round this year due to knee injury / recovery. Soon it will depend on temperature. It's getting hotter than Hades some days around here. I was at the range last Friday and couldn't believe the heat and humidity.....unreal for May. Today, however is super cool and nice....wish I could have played.

I normally walk but I noticed my last few holes of the round I start to hit the ball less consistent, possibly fatigue. Definitely more relaxing walking. When in a cart feels like I'm rushing through the round...

Tustin Ranch, Oak Creek, Rancho San Joaquin. All the green fees come with the cart included, but you can opt to walk. The only thing is they don't allow you to walk with a 2-wheel pull cart, only 3-wheel push cart. Weird I know.

    • Day 133 - Played 9 again. Driver was great, putting was better, but shots inside 100 were awful. 
    • Day 36: 15 balls, same as last few days. Then a little indoor putting.
    • hey guys, sorry about the kind of short notice, but i'm not going to be able to make it to the outing this year....  
    • Had to correct the distance - should have read 5,400 not 5,500  yds. 
    • Had to report this one - played Minnesott again today with my son.  We played behind the Friday Men's group and had a decently paced round.  My round started off par-par-bogie.  I was feeling good to be +1 through three.  Played the next two par - par and then disaster hits - well I thought it may be the unravelling of +1 through five.  Tee shot on six is a hard pull hook into the ditch separating four and six.  I know the ball is lost and re-tee - hitting three off the tee on this par five.  Long story short - what should have been at worst a bogie became a triple 8.  Now I'm +4 through six holes.  Get a solid par on seven (which I celebrated as a solid recovery hole).  Eight is a birdie and I'm back to three over.  Nine, a par 3 over water, finishes par for a 39 front.   We roll to the back to where I birdie ten (the toughest hole on the back) to be -1 after the first hole on the back, +2 for the round.  Par eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen and fifteen - that was an in the zone moment.  Have to note that fourteen - the second par 3 on the back - I hit the tee shot just short right of the flag.  Easy pitch with the 56 should put me close for a tap in par.  It does not happen - as I duff the pitch to about 3yds closer.  I reset and this time I nip it nicely only to see it land and slowly roll to the cup and drop in for a chip-in par save ( a first).   We get to sixteen and I am thinking this could be a really good round.  It's also a par 5 and I hit a solid tee shot.  I'm about 220 from the center of the green and figure I can layup with the 3w as there is a nice landing area in front of the green and it would play nicely into the typical distance I hit this club.  I'm sitting about 50 yds from the flag to the right hand side.  I overcook the 56 and see the ball bounce off the back of the turtle green.  I hit an easy 56 again to see the ball roll to the other side of the green.  Long story it became a 3putt double.  Now I am +4 through sixteen.  The last two holes are solid pars - one an up and down, the other a GIR two putt. Finished the back 1 over at 37.  Total score is a 76!  A new personal best.  Best "all around" play through the bag to date.
