Summary

GIR remains, by far, the best of the traditional golf stats. In this episode, Mark, Lou, and Greg start with their definitions of a GIR (should there be some flexibility?), and then transition into the most important—and overlooked—question: Why are you missing greens? Until you can get a clear answer to that question, it's hard to make consistent improvement in your golf.
