Not sure where the best place is to put this thread, but needed some help on this stat.
When playing I always keep track of my putts per green, FIR, and GIR. However I wanted to start keeping track of scrambling percentage, as that's not a strength of my game and want to track improvement.
By definition Scrambling Percentage is "The percent of time a player misses the green in regulation, but still makes par or better."
My question on this is whether or not this should only be calculated inside of a certain yardage, or only when missing approaches into the green? For example, if you were to hit your tee shot into water off the tee on a longer par 4, you'd be hitting 3 off the tee with no chance at making par (unless you holed an approach). Would this still count against your scrambling percentage?
Scrambling percentage is supposed to give you an idea of how you are with your short game, but this situation along with some others are irrelevant in that regard.
I can't find an answer to this anywhere online. Hopefully this makes some sense, thanks.
