30. Seems like that is right about in the middle.

[vangator]

40 for me. After reading the article (well most of it), I knew which answers would score the 5. Tried to be honest though.

[jamo]

So gritty I broke the website: Call me David Eckstein.

[Hammer 4]

A big 30 for me...meh...

[webb1522]

30 :/

[bste]

I got a 24.

I got a 10.

22

As with golf itself, lowest score wins. Right?

Aww booger, you guys whoop me bad!

[Abu3baid]

38 Means nothing until I can hit all my 3w and driver in play!

[Zeph]

I didn't like how a lot of the questions and answers were phrased, nor the options.

I got a 34, but I don't know what that number even means.

[billchao]

I got 30. Like some other people have mentioned, I'm not sure what this was supposed to mean or what impact it has on my golf game. Are they suggesting that I'm no good because I'm not "gritty" enough? Is that like saying I need a better "mental" game?

If you get an error, just hit back and hit submit again.

It means you are a quitter and a pathetic excuse for golf....J/k! It means nothing. Just people have  different temperaments and ways of learning or accomplishing the same objective. I don't see how this test means anything at all about golf. It may identify passive vs aggressive personalities at best.

36. I wouldn't call it a very accurate test though. I don't see how pre shot routines or a lesson makes you gritty

Four more points for having a coach.

Nothing wrong with having a coach but I know some people with coaches that have no "grit" whatsoever.

[joekelly]

28 but very uncertain as to meaning.  And i seldom plays 'matches' so have little experience in that.

[boogielicious]

mine said " sorry there was a problem processing your request " haha

Me too!

[lumpuckeroo]

30 for me, which is lower than I expected, but maybe more realistic than I know.  Bad weather doesn't bother me, I actually kind of relish it, course is empty and no pressure, if you play bad you have an out.  After 40 years of golfing, I have my "natural" swing, no amount of practice or teaching will get me to scratch.  When I'm not hitting the ball well I score, very unlikely, not that it hasn't happened, it is golf, everything happens, but the odds of scoring well definitely go down when I don't hit the ball well.

[Slice of Life]

44. Very surprised.

I thought if anything, I'd get dumped on for practicing what I'm lousy at and saying a pre-shot routine is why rounds take 5 hours.

But I've absolutely played some of my best rounds when I hit the ball like crap, and love to be losing big time going into the back nine. That, and I seem to putt better under pressure than when it's a 4 footer with no purpose.

If only my handicap reflected it...

[saevel25]

Your score: 32

1) Practice what I am lousy at. Though that is weighted towards ball striking. So I could easily have put, play it by ear. They are very similar answers in my opinion because both are predicated on how you are playing.

2) Streaky player, not consistent enough around the greens to really keep my score stable if I am missing greens. So I have to bet on a very good ball striking day, or an absurd putting day.

3) With a sub 30% scrambling, nope

5) It doesn't bother me to be down in a match. It can be a good motivational tool to help with focus. I really do find it fun to make a comeback. Its fun to chase down a leader.

6) I put suffering, just because I am my own harshest critic. Some times it is a learning experience, especially if it revolves around game planning. It's suffering when it just keeps hammering the same shortfalls over and over.

10) Lousy weather, it happens. It's golf, it's an outdoor sport, weather happens.
