I heard an interesting commentary from a sports psychologist today on PGA Tour radio and they referenced this test, I thought it might be interesting to compare our results and discuss Grit and how it pertains to your mental state on the golf course, before/during/after a round.

Take the test here:

The scale used:
Calculating your grit score on a scale of 1 (not gritty) to 5 (extremely gritty). Click the next button to continue.
 
For me:
Your grit score is: 3.63

You are grittier than at least 60% of the US population.
 
These are my results




Your grit score is: 4.25

You are grittier than at least 90% of the US population.
 
Must be cause I enjoy grits :wink:

Your grit score is: 4.63

You are grittier than at least 90% of the US population.
 
haha, oddly enough I got the exact same thing.
haha I'm 3.63 too. maybe that's their default when they don't want to hurt your feelings?
 
Your grit score is: 4.5

You are grittier than at least 90% of the US population
 
Your grit score is: 4.75

You are grittier than at least 90% of the US population.
 
I guess I have grit..

Your grit score is: 4.25

3.38 for me
 
Based on the questions I am 4.5 ... if the questions had been golf related I think it would have been much lower ... golf is my escape ... my relaxation.
 
Your grit score is: 4.88

You are grittier than at least 90% of the US population.

​I guess I am gritty.
 
4.25 for me
 
3.13 for me. I am one spacey mofo

Not to bad I guess

Your grit score is: 4.75

If they had a question about pulling or flipping tires I would have made up the other .25
 
3.75 for me. Grtittier than 70%.
 
4.38, grittier than 90% of the population. Don't know if that is good or not! Has certainly caused me problems at times!
 
Maybe I need to buy an eye patch:

Your grit score is: 3.5

You are grittier than at least 50% of the US population.
 
Your grit score is: 3.88
You are grittier than at least 70% of the US population.

It's interesting... I answered just about life in general. If the questions were more targeted towards golf, I wonder if there would be differences in the scores.
