Would you play

[Wheyayeman]

Every Day if you could?

Weather permitting of course

As much as I love the game and I'm normally counting down the hours until my next round, I'm not sure I could handle playing every day both physically and mentally if i wanted to perform consistently.

Or am I just a wuss?

 

[Bunkers]

Absolutely yes...i'd love to at least give it a go!

 

[Curls]

When I was a kid I played every day of the summer holidays, sometimes 36 holes a day, would kill to be able to do that again.

Then again I hadn't discovered women or beer, the reason I gave up golf for 15 years

 

[CallawayKid]

I'd love to have the choice...!

That is pretty much what I do or practicing somewhere. It is my job but I absolutely love it.

 

[ScienceBoy]

If time allowed (ie short distance travel time/setup time) I would love to do 9 before work or right after work.

Sadly its the old women and beer thing for me too...

Well wife and PC games anyway

I do so many things, about 4-6 games seriously as well as a full time job, wife and housework/cooking etc

Just cannot fit it all in with sleep and bowl movements taking up time too

As a kid I did exactly the same. Disappeared from the house at the crack of dawn, back at dusk. At aged 8 both parents went to work full time. Wouldnt happen now! One school report said 'I do not know this child' (class!).
I became quite good, getting to county standard and winning the London Schoolboys etc.
Oh, and then beer and women got in the way. Still, I could have ruined things in worse ways!
Would I like to do it now - yep! Just to see how good I could get these days.

I'd love to play every day, that would be aces. What would also be nice is to play every day but play a different course or maybe 2 or 3 different courses a week.

At the moment I try and get out for 18 at least once a week and 9 holes usually once or twice a week if I'm lucky.

 

[rosecott]

My routine playing schedule is 3 qualifiers per week - Tuesday, Friday, Sunday.

PLUS

matches, invitations, away days, away weekends etc. which can lead to situations such as 9 rounds in 11 days.

I then find that golf is becoming a chore.

Definitely. Was hoping that my ticket was the winning one in last nights Euromillions, which would have enabled me to play every day!!

 

[Achilles]

I'd certainly do it if I could. Play a few times a week as it is and that never feels enough. I think you'd have to mix it up though and play a few different courses....but I wouldn't complain if I had to play my own course everyday! At least not for the first few weeks. I do think you would start to feel the physical effects after a while though. Depends how fit you are I suppose!

 

[Snelly]

No. If I played every day, I would get bored of the game.

 

[StrangelyBrown]

I think 3 or 4 times a week would be plenty to still make each round feel special.

 

[GB72]

There are other things that I enjoy doing as well so the answer would have to be no.

 

[Bunkers]

Old women eh?? I'd rather play golf!

 

[Imurg]

I couldn't play the same course every day like some of our Seniors do. If I had a rotation of 4 or 5 courses then I wouldn't mind playing every day - body allowing of course.

 

[Bratty]

I love the idea of it, but not sure the reality would be nearly as much fun.

That said, 3 days a week would be wicked!

 

[jammydodger]

No. If I played every day, I would get bored of the game.

What Snelly said. Its hard getting the impetus to play once a week sometimes

 

[goldenbare]

when I was in teaching up until about 4 years ago during the summer hols I got quite close to doing this but certainly felt I needed a break at times.. more variety of courses would have helped but there are a few other things to do in life.
now I'm stuck behind an office desk all day with restricted holidays I get very frustrated when the sun is shining and its school holiday time
