A round of golf does burn over 1,000 cals. I've tracked runs/cycles/walks and golf via Endomondo and the figures are there.
However most people that play golf over eat and the benefits from golf is cancelled by poor diet and drinking. Just 2 pints and some crisps after will wipe out almost 1,000 calories. Have a greasy sausage roll or bacon roll and a coke then you've consumed 2,000 odd cals from snacks and beers afterwards!
In terms of calories burnt, jogging doesn't burn much more than walking. Only the likes of intense running or cycling burns over 1,000 cals an hour.
Total time counts. A 4 hour walk is better than a 1 hour run.....
