How much money do you spend on practicing?

[Simbo]

Our range is £6.70 for 100 balls. Pretty expensive
But I usually get a deal which costs £40 a month for 200 balls per day, I get this deal during winter months usually from November until end of February. I practice at the course for free using my own stuff during summer.

£1300 per year, thats probably more than most peoples membership fees!

Wintry 57 is not saying he spends £1300. He was quoting a previous post where they said they spend £25 a week which is £1300 a year

Sorry. Misread it. Peril of popping on to see what's going on here whilst walking down corridors at work!!

Range twice a week so around 12 quid

Nothing. We have a large practice ground (plenty of room for full drives) with three covered bays for wet weather practice; a separate chipping and putting ground; as well as our putting green. And my club supplies baskets of balls for free.

Nothing, I don`t practice.:thup:

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I buy a range card, usually once a month for around £25 over the winter and nothing in the summer when I use the facilities at the club

I have a range membership at £220 which knocks about 25% off the cost of balls over the course of time and also doesnt change if prices go up. It gives me a certain number of cards over whatever period i choose to use them.

Range balls at our club are free so £0.

That said, they could charge for the balls and my spend would still be £0 :rofl:

Not a great one for practising at the range.

I pay £100 for a non-Members Range Card at Elsenham http://www.elsenhamgolfandleisure.co.uk/driving-range.html which gives me 30% discount off cost of balls. Think it's £6.60 for 100 balls normally, being tiered down 75 / 50 / 25 accordingly. Heated range, ball dispenser & bar next door. Great for the winter & it's only a 10 minute walk or 2 minute drive.

My club is 20 miles away so needs commitment to get up there to practice. That said, it has great short game facilities, grass range & a huge field to use your own balls.

Horses for courses, I guess...

Is this why I have it on good authority that the practice area at Royal Ascot is known as "Bedborough Fields"?

 

[PJ87]

Just signed up for loyalty card at the other range near me

gets you little bit off range balls however the first top up is doubled so whacked £50 down.. £100 on card which will last a little while

wasnt as high tech as my range but hardly anyone there, plus had a putting green that you dont need to technically be a member of to use lol (not that anyone checks at the other place)

apparently they have deals every now and again of top up £30 and its doubled so will look out for that and use accordingly

 

[drewster]

£0 for me.

Possibly depending on who you spoke to but I couldn't possibly confirm or deny such rumours

 

[TomTom]

£10 a bucket

 

[Spear-Chucker]

Probably 35 quid a month to support myself on a couple of lunchtime's per week and Jr at the weekends who is rapidly getting quite an appetite for practicing and insists on the biggest basket imaginable :angry:

 

[Snelly]

Zero.

I only practice chipping really.

And putting as of now because I am still really struggling on the greens. All in the head and have bought two new putters this week so am hopeful that one of them can banish the demons. Am planing to have an hour putting over the weekend.
