Bowser Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Well for a guy living in a Mid-Apr to End-Oct Active golf season 218 rounds of golf is a very successful year. Yes I am retired but that still means I have other things to do around the house when my early morning round is over. Generally I'm a dew sweeper and 2 to 3 trips south a year kind of golfer. When on a trip I try to get at least 2 rds a day or else what is the point! Majority of my golf was at my home track (100 rds at Casselview Golf Club) but I did manage to get out to few other places obviously; including North and South Carolina, North Augusta (just across the river from Augusta), PEI in Canada and of course multiple courses in the Ottawa region where I reside. Attached is a snapshot of the top few for the year; of course this is only 26 Dec and the week-end is coming and I am only about 14 hrs from decent golf weather...things that make you go hummm... How many did you get in? And what is your goal for 2020? MattF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiftyNiblick Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I was able to play exactly zero rounds of golf in 2019. My goal for 2020 is to not complain about playing zero rounds that year as well. But I played plenty of rounds in more than fifty other years, so I remain grateful for that. Ours is a truly great game. Enjoy the hell out of it as you can. I still like to go to the club, sit out on the deck on a warm, sunny day, enjoy a drink or two, and watch the players hit into eighteen. Even that brings me contentment. Why do you think I still hang around here? I think of some great shots that I hit and in the rare instance that a horrid shot comes to mind, I can just laugh about it.

sirchunksalot Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I have been able to get 44 rounds so far this year, definitely the most I've gotten in during a year. I do have at least one more round coming up this weekend.As far as 2020 goes, I really plan on focusing on my approach game since I only hit 20% of my greens in regulation. In hoping this year to also break 80, but I feel that might be stretching it since my best score so far is 88. Other than that, I just want to get out and have fun chasing that little white ball around.

pulledabill Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I posted 74 rounds from March 1 through Nov 30th. Slow season as hand surgeries limited me early.

Trial&Error Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Roughly 70 rounds this calendar year. I'm excited for 2020 MattF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony@CIC Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Played so many I can't remember. I only post rounds I play with others (USGA and our Club's rules for calculating Index). We start playing in mid April and I play 4-5 times a week til the end of November. So maybe so maybe 120 recorded rounds plus a lot more unrecorded. This year I'm also going to add a couple of rounds in December - my wife and I played December 26th in 60 degree weather - pretty good for northwest Ohio.

russtopherb Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 22 rounds scored, with probably another 8-10 with my son that were for fun. With 2 kids and a lot of activities, I'm not going to come anywhere close to anyone else here when it comes to total rounds. But that's fine with me, I'd rather make time for the family now and get in my rounds later when the kids are off on their own.

MattF Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Around 35, I think. Which is nowhere near as many as I had hoped. A change this year will mean I'll be able to play a round during the week as well as my usual weekend round, so I should be up around 70 next year.

Mr. 82 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 According to GHIN I’ve played 66 rounds this past year. I’ve played much more since June, when I joined my club. I can also say that there are probably a couple dozen rounds not posted because I played as a single, which according to the USGA, cannot be posted for handicap purposes. The trend I’ve noticed that is most interesting to me is watching my index climb from a low of 3.8 earlier this year to where I am currently at at 7.3. I contribute a lot of that to having a really tough golf course as my home course and also playing in a dogfight once a week where you are playing for close ups, skins and net overall in a stableford format. Lots to think about every round. Whether all this makes me a better golfer under pressure I guess is to be determined.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I do post all my scores but with Golf Canada there is an option to say you played alone and it doesn't count as part of your handicap factor. The Grint (another site I mostly use for stats) has an option to include rounds you play as a single while not including it with the handicap (for both practice and out of season Rds).

PMookie Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I played 30 rounds, and broke 80 twice. Yep. Not a good year for me.

chisag Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 ... Probably 200 rounds. My herniated disc is postponing my 2020 rounds as I expected to be in Phoenix Jan 1st but my winter is on hold til I can walk and hopefully swing a club again, the sooner the better. I have new 2019 P790's ready for action and hope to have the new Cobra Extreme as soon as I am physically able to play. Bowser, golfertrb, Rickp and 3 others 6 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ...

DaveP043 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I posted 82 scores in 2019, and probably played a few more "unpostable" format rounds.
