Summary

You're a solid handicap golfer. On the tee, how often should you expect to make a bogey? And how does that change when the hole is a par 3, a par 4, and a par 5? Lou puts that question to Mark and Greg, and after they answer, they dissect the data. Where could you pick up lost shots most easily, to help lower your scores? 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! Data is sourced from Arccos Golf. They have over 1 BILLION shots in their database.
