If the place has a range, I warm up.
But, I also go to the range 4-5 times a week.
(I also count my whole practice facility that I go to as the range)

Just once a week for me, but i am in my backyard practicing chips quite a bit more.

I try and go to the range once a week normally, and when I play I try to hit a bucket of balls before the round as I feel it helps me to warm up my swing or I seem to hook the ball for the first few holes.

I almost never go to the driving range. Theres a park close to my home when I knock around a whiffle golf ball.
As long as Im fairly straight at that, Im happy.
Most of my practice time in spent on chip shots and putting. Its like they say, "drive for show, putt for dough."

I go at least once a week, if at all possible and I also hit some before I start a round just to warm up and stretch some.

I go to the range everyday. Whether its after work or on my lunch break, there is always something that I need to work on. Need to achieve my goals, and I wasn't born with the natural skill so I acquire it.

I only go to the range when I go to the course to loosen up. My In-Law's have a nice yard right up the road so that I can hit up to an 8 iron with a full swing. While I don't get as much practice with the longer clubs, I have gotten pretty sound with pitches from different distances and with the 'scoring' irons.

I mostly go to the range around 3 times a month, or on some occasions, I'll go once a week, all to work and improve on my technique, I'm done hitting the ball recklessly like I used to when I was younger...

I hardly ever go to the range. It just seems to mess me up.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
