Summary

Welcome to the "Saturday Morning Golf Stat" from the Hack it Out Golf Podcast. In today's episode, Mark and Greg make wild, grossly inaccurate guesses as to how well a scratch player will play an approach shot from 130 yards in the fairway. This might be an all-time example of the way that Lou's stats can help a golfer manage expectations.

Each of these will be a mini-episode (10-15 minutes long) about an interesting golf stat. We will discuss what you can learn, and most importantly, how you can apply this on the golf course to lower your scores and lower your handicap.

Listen on your drive to the golf course or over your Saturday morning coffee!

We need to get a show which gets our own back on him, Greg. I don't know how we got roped into this system we're in right now, but yes. Yeah, it's called the wrong stat or something. The Saturday wrong stat. So you've got to give the wrong stat. That would hurt him so much, wouldn't it? It'd be like the inner pain of having guessed the wrong thing.
