Summary

Welcome to the "Saturday Morning Golf Stat" from the Hack it Out Golf Podcast. Today's question is one of the most basic for lowering scores: three-putt avoidance. How often do various handicap levels three-putt? Lou puts that question to Mark and Greg, and after sorting out the answers, the guys give their best advice for not wasting shots on the green. 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.
