How long does it take you roughly to get round your track

[Bamberdele21]

on a good day?

on a bad day?

In a four ball?

Also what would you consider too long of a round?

(Edit: Include your yardage for track)

 

[clubchamp98]

Social 3.30 hrs.
In a comp 4.15 hrs.
6600 yds pretty tough.
Anything over 4 hrs is to long imo.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

On my own about 2-2/12 hours

2 ball about 3-3.15

4 ball about 4 hours. It is usually 4 hours on average whether its a good or bad day as you need to keep position on the course and if you can't score pick up (we play stableford in the roll ups). A medal may stretch to 4.15 but that's unusual and pace is still dictated by the group in front and your responsibility to keep up with them

length of course?

Too long some days

It's so dependent on the course.
A long course with long walks green to tee can add 20 minutes to a round easily
A few ball hunts and thats another 15..
At my place, as a 3 ball, we get round in a whisker over 3 hours or 3 1/4 if we've had to look for Fragger's ball a lot...a 4 ball about 3 1/2 to 4
We're "allowed" 3 3/4 as a 3 ball according to the sign by the 1st...and 4 balls 4 1/4....
I think if youre taking that long on our course then you're too slow.
Just shy of 6400 and we have a couple of decent hikes to some tees. Just worked it out..we total 1100 yards of walk green to tee
Comps are always in 3 balls and you rarely take 4 hours..we normally reckon 90-100 minutes for each 9.

On my own, less than 2 hours. Add 15 minutes for every extra player in the group. Anything over 3.5 hours is too slow. Course is 6100yds.

 

[SammmeBee]

Depends on the day time format competition practice and size of group….took 2.5 hours for 9 holes yesterday as a 2-ball with no-one in front or behind! Best practice day for ages!

 

[HarrogateHacker]

A motivated two ball can do 2.30, a more normal round is 3.30ish, comps a bit longer but anything over 4 hours is unusual

 

[need_my_wedge]

Played Royal St David’s in just over 2.5 hours today.

Dunno. Is Aaron Rai in front of me?

He's in a two ball with Kevin Na

4.15 round royal ascot is a snails pace. IMO. Over 3.30 round mine I have pins in my eyes

 

[IanM]

4 ball Stableford this morning, every time filled. 3 hours 35 minutes. Should take quite a bit off 4 ball match play.

Medals might take a bit longer, but rarely over 4 hours

Pointless question really depends entirely on the slowest group in front of you.

@MarkT
I think you’ve been replaced as the forums main thread starter…P45 in the post if aren’t careful

 

[IanM]

Pointless question really depends entirely on the slowest group in front of you.

The length of the course, the distance between greens and next tees, gradient, weather, prevailing etiquette etc etc etc ?

Nevertheless, worthy of comparison

Not really, I've taken 4 hours to get round long courses and 4.5 hours to get round short ones

 

[IanM]

Me too. Fancy that ?

 

[Orikoru]

On my own, around 2:20. Two ball 3 hours. Three ball 3:20, four ball 3:45 ish. Course is only around 5400 yards.
