I usually play 2 or 3 times a week, and there are many, many courses within a 40 mile radius from my house. I've visited close to 10 facilities last month.

My question is this: Am I benefiting my game by varying difficulty and layout, or slowing my learning by not having consistently similar tasks to overcome?

P.S. I started playing in April '05, and can't wait to break into the 80s!
