How Many Calories Does Walking 9 Holes of Golf Burn?

1095.
I wore my Adidas Micoach over 9 holes because I was curious exactly how many calories I was burning.  The final stats were:
  • 1095 calories burned
  • 2.38 miles walked
  • 2 hours, 5 minutes
  • 91 b.p.m. Avg. Heartrate
 This was a slightly slower day than normal, and on a short course. Nonetheless, it is nice to know that I burn ~500 calories per hour when carrying my bag playing golf.  Here is the graph over 2 hours:

GOLF - Thursday, June 23
+7 (9 holes)
1 of 6 fairways hit
3 of 9 greens
Didn't play very well.  I was striking the ball good, but had trouble off the tee.  Should have been a few strokes lower because I was putting the ball decently...but that's golf.
