Default Average rounds in a week

With all of this awesome weather we have been having it looks like the season is in full swing! I have to admit, I am a LITTLE jealous of some of you discatarians golfing your ASSES OFF!
I work 8 to 5 Mon-Fri so up until a couple weeks ago it was weekends only, two a week.
Lately I have been eeking out about two rounds of 18 during the week, and two on the weekend averaging about 72 holes a week. Here's my question, how many rounds would you say you average in a week?

Obviously you know Pat, that I work the same days as you, (same company), so our disc days are the same. Unlike you though I have no running car, so even my weekdays after work are limited. I can easily walk to Orchard for a round or two after work now, but after a day in our industry, a long walk to play a round on a short course like Orchard isnt always worth it.

Trozzle!!!, you own two of the four responses on this thread already and you still haven't even answered the simple question that started the thread in the first place...

Since the weather started turning a month ago or so, I've been playing perhaps 6-8 rounds of 18 at Lakewood or Seatac per week. Too many, to be sure. My golfing skills could probably benefit from more practice and less slogging around the course incessantly.

On average, I would say between 18 and 41 holes (1-2 rounds) per week. During the winter months, it is mostly just weekend throwing. However, as it is light outside longer, the chances for throwing after work increases. Thus, my average will increase. It should increase this week with the start of TUESDAY TWOS tonight! Woo hoo!

3 to 4 rounds a week; Pier on Wed. and Fri. and a couple on Sunday mornings. The old back can't take much more.

30-40 min of putting 3-4 days a week. 30-40 minutes of field time 3-4 days a week. maybe 1 to 2 rounds a week if lucky.

My wife and I are out at the course on average 6 days out of the week, sometimes 5 sometimes 7. we usually play a round a day and throw 4 or 5 drives on each hole. if you count 4 drives on each hole then we would be playing 72 holes each day. somedays we dont play a actual round, we go out in the field or just practice some of the more difficult holes.

my work schedual is really nice for Disc Golf, because i get off work at 3 pm so even in the winter it is still light out when i am down with work!

I expect to see some 950+ rated rounds from you this summer young man... I wish I could play more than 2 rounds a week... Gotta wait till my son can consistently throw 75-100 feet per shot... he's at 30-60 now... David Wiggins Jr got nothing on my boy... I look forward to the Juniors under 7 division in a few years...
Anyways back to the topic of how many rounds a week...
And good lordy LakeStevensBA, 27? I probably get in 27 in a whole year, if i drank that in a week, bad gas would be the least of my "cards" problems...

Rare is the day I don't golf. I never tried keeping track of how many rounds but it is a lot. More than 7/wk. You can't tell by watching me play though. I haven't gotten the slightest bit better in at least 2 years.

ChUcK, meet Troy. Troy, that's ChUcK.

I would say that I am averaging about 110-130 holes per week. 72-90 are weekend holes and the rest are sprints to the course to get in 18-20 twice a week. In addition to that, I have been taking the basket out another couple of days per week and putting at it for 40-60 minutes.

What winter?

This is so sad.

For the first three years I averaged about 20 rounds a week. Every day at lunch, about 3 times a week after work (in the summer), and a couple of longer rounds on the weekends.

Life has changed. Work situation has changed. I'm lucky to get 1-2 rounds per weekend in now. During lunch is out of the question. After work is a rare treat.
