F-ck Yeah Baby!
Alright so I was thinking about this and looked at recent scores to find out how many times per round I'm actually swinging a golf club off the deck. Breaking it down recently has really opened my eyes to how little we swing the golf club.
Let's start with a broad number of 85 as your finishing score.
85. Let's say you had 34 putts. That is 51 golf shots. Let's say 10 chips around the green. Down to 41 golf shots. You tee up the ball 18 times. Down to 23 golf shots off the deck. Even if you count your tee shots, that's just 41 golf shots in a round of Golf.
That is less than a small bucket of golf balls that you have to be decent with. Literally just advancing the ball. 23 golf shots off the deck.
Score 95. 38 putts. 15 chips. 18 teed up balls. 24 full swing off the deck per round, 42 full swings total.
Just something to pass along that has really helped me and when you analyze it. I've limited my range time prior to the round to 15-20 golf balls total, and sometimes no full swings at all prior to a round, that has helped prevent burnout and fatigue on the back 9, something I used to struggle with because I would just go swing after swing after swing on the range to find something, which happens. The other day I bought a medium bucket just for the range which is like 70-75 golf balls. The last 10-15 golf balls was a complete waste and I was tired of swinging and started to top the ball, blade, etc.
I usually try and keep Golf very simple, less thinking. I won't be testing air density or ball dimples like DeChambeau anytime soon, but this is simple haha.
