Good Stat Tracking Software?

[augafan48]

Does anyone use something like this?  I want something for my computer that I can enter in all my stats from my rounds and it can then tell me GIR, misses left, right, which clubs miss where, sand saves, etc.  I'm willing to spend some money on it if it gets any good recommendations.... what do you guys think?

Thanks!

Anything wrong with using Scorecard?  I love that program.

Scorecard... I've checked out the demo and I love it... I haven't actually gotten around to buying a copy myself yet but I think I will soon... I'm to lazy to write down my stats during a round sometimes.

it seems like the program scorecard does a lot, but i'd hate to spend a lot of time messing around with an actual paper scorecard to prep the stats.  how do you add all these stats to your scorecard when playing?  i've searched around but all i am told is "buy the program and you'll find out".  is this some trick to get me to buy it before you tell me the "special sauce" to make it work?

Yeah. I use only two boxes. Or sometimes I use the free iPhone software.

You only track five stats:

1. Score - you'd track that one anyway
2. Fairway hit - you draw an arrow left, up, or right
3. # Putts - 0, 1, 2, 3
4. GIR/UD/SS - green in regulation or up and down or sand save
5. Distance of first putt - a quick estimate's good

Takes 10 seconds to write it down. And you get 35+ stats out of it all.

Golf Digest has a free online program "Make Me Better" at http://golfdigestchallenge.com You print out a paper scorecard to track your stats on during the round then enter them later. Here's a look at the scorecard http://www.golfdigestchallenge.com/files/BRC_GDChallenge_2010.pdf

If you have an iPhone, Golfshot is fairly decent, and it's free.

There are lots of free ones online just search (golf stat tracker) in google....

I'm not sure if it's incorrect to post this but oobgolf has a very nice stat tracker with spreadsheets that you post online, private or public. I do have scorecard paid for, but I find the oobgolf stat tracker better because there are no uploads to do you just fire up your page and post your round. Yes I like my stats online so I can see how bad I am from anywhere in the world

Anyone who keeps stats on their game should also count strokes lost because of (1) bad decisions: wrong shot, right shot but wrong club, etc., things that have nothing to do with technical skills, but with THINKING, and (2) not being mentally focused while making the shot. I believe if a golfer could eliminate these mistakes, their handicap would go down by at least a third, and without making one trip to the driving range.

thanks for the useful scorecard tips!

i had a system i kept, but all it would do is count FIR/GIR and # of putts.  the other systems mentioned here allows for more info to be kept easily.  i like it!

I want to use this for Uk courses that have no slope ratings. I know i cant be mega accurate as many factors come into play, just for the sake of estimation does anybody have a system for estimating these ratings from SSS. For instance my home course is par 72 and SSS 69. I know an average course slope is 113 so what would be a good under number to use as an estimate for this course?

Hi all,

Is there a piece of software available for keeping track of your golf scores which you can export data to another source i.e your website?

What software are you all currently using?

Lets discuss........

Microsoft Excel

I like Excel as well.  Tracks exactly what I want it to.  And no fees.
