1994 to 2008 played one time a year. Last year played 54 times this year played 87 times. Finally gave up softball and started golfing.

More. Had a son last year :)

More. Out of school now, so I have more time and money to spend.

Less-but last year I was in Buffalo, so golf was off-limits by November. I'm behind last year's pace but I'll have November and December to even up.

Playing less this year.

The weather is a big factor here in UK but by far is how busy my club has got, main cause of this is that it hosts the Ryder Cup on the Twenty Ten course next month so there has been a lot of deals on for residents to stay and play on the other two courses... 240 on the guest course this Saturday, playing in 4 balls teeing off at 10 min intervals! so no chance of getting on that course.

The members course is hard to get on as there are comps every weekend and I don't enter these as it is £5 entry each time, which is £25 a month on top of the £1050 I pay a year already and I can’t afford that :( so not getting to play as much as the available tee times are to late in the day for me and ruin the weekend for me and my family.

Hence I will not be rejoining next year, which is a shame as they are both championship courses.

More, but not as much as I'd planned. Until recently it's just been too hot and I've been busy with other things.

I've been playing too much golf this summer I think.

Dropped 10 shots this year, was hoping to get down to 15 so I can play in the mens competitions through the winter though.
I might be able to play in them but not take a prize so that I can get a proper handicap. It's still a little high right now.

not enough, last year i got 75 rounds, this year i am only at 35. I should get about 55 till it is all said and done but I planned on playing more this year.

Bottom line for me is business has picked up quite a bit and most of my rounds come during the work day...I hate when my job gets in the way of my hobbies. That being said i need to leave the office now to get to the Phillies!!

Only got in ten 18-hole rounds in 2009, was planning for more this year.

But, I only have five 18s to date!!! I got rained out nine times in May-June when I actually had time and planned to play.

Through I would recover when wife and I went to golf resort for 4 days. Sudden rain on arrival, played 18 on day two, rain the last two days.

Have been getting in some range time, and short game work in my backyard. But, 18s are scarce...

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • I'd just get the Stack Radar. I've never been totally comfortable with how it measures, those things. I think people put them in the wrong place. I think it's highly sensitive to where you swing… if you swing the tip end through the radar "beam" (it's not a beam, but you know what I mean I think), you get the true speed. But if you swing the spot 6" up the shaft through the beam, you get a much slower speed. For the wedge stuff alone I recommend the Stack Radar. Plus data entry is SOOO easy.
    • Does anyone else have the swing speed radar and had the experience of it going completely haywire? It’s been decent for me until the last 2 weeks. I’m now getting readings on back to back swings that are 20 mph off. I’m getting absolute garbage from it - I have to swing many times to get something close to right. The only thing that works (sometimes) is taking the batteries out. Here's the radar I'm talking about: Amazon.com : Swing Speed Radar - Achieve Longer Drives - Delivers Precise Golf Club Swing Speeds from 20 to 200 MPH. Master Consistency with Our US Made Doppler Radar Training Tool for Instant Speed Results : Golf Swing Trainers : Sports & Outdoors Thinking about just biting the bullet on a stack radar at this point.
    • Sorry, I missed your original post. Glad things are looking up with your wife's cancer. That's scary. Hope you can get back in to swing of things this year. I travel to Richmond quite a bit for son's soccer. I will reach out to see if we can get out together during one of the visits.
