Golf Playing Lessons

Here are some ideas of how you can track your statistics:

1. Track your real putting statistics with a spreadsheet I've developed. You input not only how many putts you've had, but how long they are, thus giving you a much more realistic, useful statistic. One day you may have 26 putts, the next day you may have 32 putts. You may have actually putted better on the 32 putt day (the 26 putt day may have been the result of many short putts; you chipped really well that day).

You can compare your different length putt stats with stats from the pros as well as various handicap amateurs.

2. If you want to track your full game, there's a great golf statistics analysis software called SHOT BY SHOT. I've made arrangements for a $34 discount off the annual subscription rate. And, you can try out the software first if you like. What I like so much about this software is that it compares your game to a huge database of other golfers (over 35 000 rounds).

3. You have a 6-iron shot. The pin is tucked on the left portion of the green and is guarded by water in front. You aim 15 yards right of the pin thinking that if you miss hit your shot, you'll still end up near the green and not in the water. You push your shot slightly and end up with a 60 foot putt from one tier to the next. Was you decision a good one?

It depends on your putting ability. We're talking about playing your percentages. I call it playing with your own, unique "club print." All of us have a unique shot pattern with each club. You can easily track this. Keep track of where you hit each of your shots relative to where you're aimed. You'll quickly see that you have a tendency of ending up short and left, long and right, etc. You can then make your club selections with more confidence because you'll know the likelihood of where your shots will end up (such as in the water with your 6-iron for the example above).

I've developed an analysis of shot patterns that determines mathematically what your best aim should be. After only 10 rounds of keeping statitistics you can get a clear idea of where, on average, you should be aiming to reduce your overall score.

4. I just did an analysis of PGA Tour players' GIR and scoring. I used two of the most recent 2007 tournaments and PGA TourCast. The results stress the importance of hitting fairways. I also relate the stats to some previous research done on amateur golfers.

You could improve your score by simply hitting a club off the tee that has a higher chance of hitting the fairway: like a fairway wood or hybrid. Try it out for at least 5 rounds to see if it makes a significant difference.
