How do you get around the course?

[JBones]

I walk 90% of my rounds. I feel more in tune with the course and just enjoy myself much more when I'm walking. I usually only ride when I'm in a scramble or crunched for time. I also tend to score better when I'm walking. It's also great exercise to walk 7 miles with an extra 30lbs on your back.

In my golf cart.  The only round I walk is the first of the year if they aren't letting carts out yet.

Ride on weekends, walk during the week.

Same here, unless it's in the summer when my wife gets off work, then we ride to get in 9 holes before dark.

I love walking. The only time I ride is when it is mandated by the course or I'm playing with a group of friends that rides.

 

Walking is better exercise, keeps me in a better rhythm, and allows me to appreciate the course more

I feel I score better when walking. More time to think about my upcoming shot. I do ride on weekends. It seems to be common theme.

At home, in Colorado, I push around a Tour Trek One Click 360 so I can add the padded seat attachment for slow MGA tourneys.

 

For Summer in Texas, I want an electric cart with a roof and I'm still probably going to try to park it in the shade.

Even if I'm riding in a cart, I always hop out and walk the last 50 yards to the green.

 

There is so much information about the predominant and secondary slopes of a green complex that can be absorbed on a purposeful walk up to the front edge.

[Kanoito]

Walking. Riding would cost me $40 per round.

And I need the exercise!

[SuperDave]

At one course early last year I got around on some carts with no brakes. Not good when you got to go straight down hill and around curves after you tee off. But they have upgraded since.

Walk, except for the occasional cart round, mostly when on holiday. Last round it was more of a hobble, hopefully getting back to normal for this weekend.

[RexS]

Cart only for me, I cannot walk anymore unfortunately, too many physical issues. But, at least I am able to still get out there and play.

[MattF]

In a cart because all the blokes I play with can't walk a course due to various physical limitations...and I'm a bit on the lazy side myself. When I am no longer playing with them, I MAY start walking.

[evershady]

Walk mostly to say I'm exercising, but towards the end of the yesr as the days get short it's usually a cart to finish more holes.

in the past, i've mostly taken a cart.....My plan is to walk MUCH more this year, w/ a push cart.   Exceptions would be a few courses that meander through housing developments, that would be pretty tough to walk.

[JudgeSmails]

I'll also second the notion that I play better when walking, think it heightens concentration on what you're doing

[Sschaffer24]

Transitioning from riding to carrying this year. Exciting to do so. I've always played better and seem to focus more when I do that, so we will see how this year goes!

[PlaidJacket]

I got away from walking* late last summer and now ride a cart. To be honest I don't think I play any different whether riding or walking. I should get back to walking this spring if for no other reason than the exercise.

 

* pushcart

[Sschaffer24]

Plaid it honestly could be placebo effect for me. Not sure. Either way I THINK I play better when I walk, so I inevitably do. At least to some degree.

 

Now next year if I'm in here saying I'm switching back to riding because I play better then you guys know there's something up... Haha. That's more than likely an excuse!

I know it could just be mental. But by far I have better round when I walk. I think it activates way more in your body 

[Reesedw]

Playing in the NorthWET.. it all depends on the course. there are some courses that are better to walk and others better to ride do to terrain and drainage.. When walking i use a push cart.. 

 

best golf I have ever played was walking bare foot with 3 clubs and beverage.. didn't care how i played and just enjoyed myself.. It was me and my best friend at dusk.. Sun setting over the Cascades, about 85 course to ourselves. it was almost perfect...

On foot 95% of the time. Usually only take a cart if it's require or it's really hot and I'm playing by myself. Just like to walk.

Wow that thing is hawter that a two dollar pistol!  Looking good  

 

 

I truly can't remember the last time I walked a golf course. Several decades for sure. I've had three knee surgeries on my right knee with two of them being major and walking up and down hills still puts a strain on it. I've also broken my right hip and my right leg is two inches shorter than my left.  Two many surgeries.  

 

I get plenty of exercise four days a week at my gym with 30 minutes warm up on the elliptical. I also walk my dog two miles a day (every day 365 per year) however that's on a fairly level trail so very little if any pressure on my knee. Plus I'm not toting or pulling a golf cart.  Actually my big arse dog is pulling me around the neighborhood.

Thanks, I have to ride now both knees r shot and hips r getting tight. I can walk on flat stretch for mile but uneven ground kills my knees in the course.

Exactly.......   Plus the fact that my wife and I both play and when we join a course, we look for the total package which includes the cart , range balls, and of course unlimited green fees/golf.  Even if my knees were 30 years younger I'm the sort that hates to not use or let something go to waste.  Not using a cart that was part of my monthly dues would not sit well.
