Yeah,  but I didn't know if I needed to adjust anything in entering my rounds, like add 1 to my score to make it equivalent to a par 72 course.

I’m not worried about it. I doubt it’s going to be that accurate where a strike matters.

I sorted the date column again, and added my 74 with 12 GIR and 29 putts.

The formula is off by 3, but is off by 5 if I would have taken 31 putts.

The data is pretty interesting so far....

I think I get the 31 putts (over and under is the variance) as being an optimal predictor of score given the number of greens hit. Please elaborate on the significance of 31. Thanks!

I just threw yesterday's round in there. Too many penalty shots yesterday. Otherwise it would have been pretty close. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Posted my round of 75 with 32 putts and 11 GIR today. I didn't try to make too many putts, but it was still okay.

This morning I shot 75 with 10 greens, 29 putts, and 2 penalty strokes. The formula nailed it. @iacas what is the significance of 31  putts in the spreadsheet?

I keep adding my rounds to the spreadsheet but I don't know if I'll ever play to the formula.

Only 2nd full round in the past few weeks.  The prediction was pretty spot on, had a horrible day of putting - been averaging around 30 putts, Friday was 41.

We'll be able to do some analysis later on. My early hunch is that your putting plus your penalties play a big role.

Added today’s round. Shot 83 with 5 GIR, 0 penalties, and 33 putts. Off the top of my head I missed three putts inside 4 feet.

I put in 4 more scores today. All within 1 or 2 of predictions. Erik @iacas can you explain the significance of the 31 putts column?

No. It's just my best guess at maybe an adjustment. If you have 42 putts, the 95-2xGIR isn't going to work, of course.

Its pretty interesting as an adjustment factor and has hit a few times. I know that my averages over a few years of stat keeping is between 30.5 and 31.5. You are definitely on to something.

    • Sitting at home this evening, I feel good about my game. As with all of my golf seasons, this one has been a roller coaster, but the high points certainly have made up for my failures and bad times this year. I hope I can keep my hot streak going. If it ends, at least I know there will be a new streak not too far off.
    • Yeah I know. It sucks to have an idea then have thorough explanations to why one disagrees with it. It’s much more fun to just have people agree and say, ‘ Great Scott my boy! You’ve really uncovered something here!’ 😀
    • Wow it's really awesome to see how many courses you all have played. I am jealous! I've only played 7 courses.
    • Broke my record today and it felt great. Front nine I was 8 over, then on back nine I was only 4 over until the 18th hole. I think I let it get to my head as it was an easy par 3 and I ended up sending the ball into the lake and got my first triple bogey of the day haha. Typical. Nonetheless I can't complain, mostly pars and bogeys all day. Ended with an 83. 
    • Or just check Craigslist for someone selling found balls. There's your best budget.
