I have a week and a half left of partial morning rounds and then my golf year is shot to hell. Dreaming of the day I can finally become a member at my favorite club here.

Hmmm...Almost always play twice a week but 36 holes on Saturday. Some weeks (like last week with 6 rounds) I play more and there may have been a few weeks off and on in January and February when I didn't play at all.

Best guess around 100 rounds.

When I was a club member for 5 years I almost always played 10 to 15 rounds a week unless the weather was awful and it had to be pretty bad for me to not play since I had a cart cover and a heater in my cart.

I have 35 rounds this year. I hope to get in at least 50.

Holy crap that's a lot of golf.

I lived on the course. The only thing that kept me off of the course was work. Fortunately we only worked 3 or 4 days a week and got off work at 1:00 o'clock. My truck always had the urge to turn into the course driveway after work (whether I wanted to play or not).

My wife even took up golf because she said that was the only way she was ever going to see either me or our son.

At a little over 50 right now, but the pace will pick up a bit with a 2 day club championship and 3 day member guest coming up.

I only plan on working 2 more Fridays the rest of the year so Friday + Saturday rounds should be a given.

I'm at about 75 rounds. I don't know the exact number because there are a handful of rounds I played with my wife in 'mixed couples' tourneys that can't be submitted for my handicap. I should easily get 100 rounds in this year. I played every week from Sept 1 - Dec 20 last year.

I live in South Dakota and live on a Palmer course we have great access. We start playing around April 1 through mid Nov. I have 89 rounds so far... I get in my cart and go. So even though we can't play year round we can make up a lot if ground 3 hour rounds on non peak times is average. To my friends in FL AZ Our course was on the Nike tour so it's no dog track!

I have 27 posted rounds which includes at least eight 9 hole rounds that were combined into four 18s.  I post everything but did play 1 scramble that was not posted and, as of Labor Day, 1 match play round that the committee chooses not to post because of gimmes.

This is the 2nd season in row that I have played consistently- the first time I have done that in over 20 years and the dividends are starting to show in my game with good results in Men's league and, as of yesterday, advancing to the semi-finals in the Keystone Match Play tournament.

After reading some of the responses I'm kinda embarrassed to post my number here. To date this year I've played 235 rounds. As my son tells me " Dad, if you okay so much, why aren't you any better than a 7?" I tell him it's quantity not quality golf I play. I retired when I moved to Huston 4 years ago and play 7-10 per week. Haven't got tired of it yet. My mindset is " if I have a bad round round, no problem as ill be back here tomorrow in less than 24 hours"

Don't be embarrassed. Lots of us wish we were playing that much. :beer:

Really I not but not having to go to work is really great. My day is simple, get up and see my wife off to work then read the paper, do any honeys do's that need to be done. Go to the course at 10:30 and finish by 3:30. Head home to get diner started and have wine out for my honey when she gets home. Go to bed and get up and repeat daily! Doesn't get any better!

    • 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.
