I thought this would be an interesting and useful thread. I'm curious how my stats compare to others, and in particular, how they compare to lower handicaps. For me, as a stat tracker, it would be a good way to see where I need to improve to get to lower handicaps.

So, anyways, I think the best way is to post your handicap, along with whatever stats. For me:

Handicap: 14.1

Average GIR: 8

Scrambling %: 13.1%

Putts per hole: 2.02

Putts per hole (last 10): 1.96

Putts per GIR: 2.2 (ugh)

Average score (last 10 rounds): 82.7

Par 3 avg (last 10 rounds): 3.86

Par 4 avg (last 10 rounds): 4.87

Par 5 avg (last 10 rounds): 5.29

Not going to post the all-time averages for me because it includes a lot of rounds not indicative of my current ability - not that I'm embarrassed by them; they're just less useful to me and others. I don't keep FIR, which I probably should.

Great idea to see what u need work on but I've never done it. I just keep scorecard with score , fairways hit, greens hit, and putts. I write down my distance  with approach to green and putting distance so I know what yardages I need to work on more but that's it.

My index is <2 and if I were to guess going off of what you posted that my stats would look close to this

Handicap                   2

GIR                          12

Avg score last 10rds  75

Other than those I'd simply be guessing

    • Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there. 
    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
