My question was a joke, but how do you know it's linear?

I knew that, and my answer was just in jest.

it would be an anomaly if the 74 - 76 range was better than the 71 - 73 range and worst than the 77 - 79 range don't you think?

Also, it would be hard to convince anyone that the 100+ have a better up and down % than the 90 - 99 range.

I don't think I need to go into statistics to convince you of the above two?

:)

Nah, but I did find it odd that they had gaps in the ranges. ;-)

Pretty much spot on for me. All about where you miss greens. Better players are nGIR often and they hit more greens. If you only have to scramble 9 times a round your stats are going to be better than the guy that hits zero GIR. My last 20 U&D; stat is 33.3%, YTD is 35.4%.

Unfortunately, I'm pretty good at scrambling. Be happy that you're not. ;-)

I made a lot of near greens but not so many GIR in the last two weeks. It' pretty ugly.

It's to the point where I get so antsy trying to get an up and down that I usually will miss even within 6 feet. I'm less nervous wiht a birdy putt! It's like super in my head now!!!!!

Yeah but if you are shooting mid 80's golf and not getting up and down it means you are making more conventional pars than other golfers in your handicap range. I haven't looked at the stats lately but if I remember right the mid 80's golfer usually hits about 3-5 GIR. I make par or better 56% during a round and have to scramble for a third of those.

Weird stat… "Inside 100 yards"? How many players were tested? How many shots?

Inside 100 yards could have huge fluctuations if one group hit from an average of 74 yards while another group from 62 yards, on average.

Here's to hoping the numbers are "hundreds of golfers, thousands of shots" for each segment.

True, scrambling from 100 yards would be really good!


For some reason I gleaned over the 100, and assumed it must mean 10-30 yards.

I missed the hundred yards part. The numbers would be flawed based on that. I don't known any sub 10 or so golfer missing greens so bad they are getting down at better than 30% near 100 yards. My stats for that are probably less than 5%.

What is the percentage of up and down from just off the green....from rough vs. from fairway?

Agree.  I dislike when summaries are published without reference to the actual data.

    • Wordle 1,013 4/6* ⬛🟦🟦⬛⬛ ⬛🟦⬛🟦🟦 🟧⬛🟧🟧🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 par is good after a double bogey yesterday.
    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
