How often do you need to practice/play per week to play your best?

[CorvetteGuy]

No Practice -- just play and about 3-4 times a week.

 

[SHIFTY]

I would say 2-3 times a week.
As well as a bucket before, and 15 minutes on putting green almost guarantees a few stokes off, I would say confidently.

 

[Snowman]

I play 3-4 times a week and my game fluctuates up and down. I'm making very gradual improvement, so it's at least close to my sweet spot. Ideally I'd spend another day or two practicing - especially short game, because it's so easy to lose touch and confidence at that.

 

[BlakeGom]

I practice putting on the mat at home 4-5 nights a week and try to hit the range weekly.

 

[Matthew]

If I’m in that place where my swing is good, I need 30 balls a week. If it’s not, there’s not enough.

 

[Bernoulli]

Other than putting and short game, I’m not big on practice. Warm up before a round by hitting about 10 balls.

 

[LSMO]

I try and practice on the course. Too much ranger time get me thinking I’m Butch Harmon and can fix my own swing. For some reason when I practice on the course I’m less technical.

 

[RecGolfer]

Practice twice, play once. More than that I feel like I'm getting overloaded with golf.

 

[Gus R]

When I was posting scores I used tp practice 2-3 times a week and play at least 3 times a week. I also hit some balls before playing that day just to get my timing not to try and practice something I was working on at the time.

 

[Drumdog]

If I play at least once a week and some range time once a week, my game holds together.

 

[ranger1989]

If I play 4-times a week I can get my game pretty consistent. But reality is I only play on the weekends right now,,,okay but not as consistent as i would like to be.

 

[Nerdy_81]

Anything less than twice a week and my game starts to suffer. I think 3 times a week is the sweet spot.

I'd say practice 5 days, play 3 would result in serious improvement
