How much do you play/practise??

[Losttheplot]

Just curious to how much everyone plays golf. Rounds per week, practise ground/driving range...????

I play on average 3 rounds a week throughout the whole year and probably do 8 hours a week split between practise ground (drivers/iron play) and practise green for putting/short game.

How about everyone else??

 

[StrangelyBrown]

1 round a week and maybe a hundred balls at the range.

Or in other words, I don't play as often as I'd like to and I don't practice enough

Some people just have too much time on their hands

Due to work, the mrs, the mistress, the bit on the side, kids & dogs I am only able to manage 1 or 2 rounds a week (normally 1 in winter then 2 during the summer) and about 150 balls a week at the range. Would like to play/practice much more but unfortunately dont have the time

Same for me, until I have a week or two off. It's then play-practice-play-practice-play-play......crash, have a lesson, practice-play-play, shoot under 75, decide that's good enough, clubs away.

If I didn't have to work, I'd probably be half decent.

I'm on a good roll a.t.m. though....will it last?

 

[slugger]

play twice per week and maybe get the occassional 9 holes thrown in as well if i'm lucky. practice twice a week if i am lucky as well. wife and young kid is where most of my time is spent.

i'd be much better if i could practice more.

 

[Fyldewhite]

Probably 3 full rounds a week in summer and a couple of nights playing just a few holes with HID (maybe 11 holes max). Maybe an hour a week on the putting green. Once a week in winter if course open.

fortunately I work shifts so I work 5 then off 5 so I play a lot on my days off. Also I have no kids just yet so I'm taking advantage while I have the chance.

 

[RichardC]

Try to get out for 6-9 holes twice a week and 18 on Saturday/Sunday.

I would go to the range if I could not get to the course.

 

[IM01]

At least 3 rounds per week in the summer...never practice would rather go out and play

 

[birdieman]

1 or 2 rounds per week in early summer, maybe 3 mid summer down to 1 round per week in late summer. Practice quite hard April/May (3 hrs per week) then practice tails off totally by June once I have my game together hopefully. No golf of any kind in winter (November-March).

 

[Smiffy]

At the moment it's averaging out at a game every 10 days or so.
Practice???
What's that?

It's what good players do

Me
9-18 holes a week
That's it.

 

[Basher]

Usually 1 to 2 rounds per week. Sometimes partial rounds if time is tight.
Like to go up around 3 times a week during the better months after work. Do a bit of practice, then a few holes. Love it.

Still don't think I play enough.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Usually two rounds per week and then 2-4 practice sessions depending on what needs work on, how depressed I am about my game. I try to play more and practice less now the longer nights are here. I tend to practice more and play less straight after a lesson to try and work the changes in.

This week I'm not (and haven't) touching a club in any shape or form until Sunday at the earliest

 

[CannyFifer]

Always 2 but often 3 per week but no practice
I plan to change the practice to a couple of hours per week though.

 

[pokerjoke]

Ive cut down to twice a week due to work commitments but still practicing loads,really concentrating on short game due to the changing conditions ie hard ground,putting is rank at the moment so practicing that to.

 

[percy_layer]

I play one round and maybe a couple 9 hole games every 2 weeks or so depending on weather and work. I try to practice every few days. My first competition is in less than 3 weeks so will play a bit more and work on my putting nearer the time.

Or single men living with their parents

Usually practice a couple of hours before a round on the weekend and play about 6 times a month.

 

[JT77]

Usually play 2 18 holes a week, and if I can, a 9 hole or 2 also. get to the range when I can, couple of times a week, sometimes before 9 holes. Depends on the family also as have to do Daddy things too. I play early on the weekends so it isnt too bad.

 

[feary]

In school time:
2 rounds per week
7ish hours practise per week

In school holidays:
6/7 rounds a week
probably about 15 hours practise a week
