Hi, I was looking at the spreadsheets on protourgolfcollege.com and I like the idea of tracking data like them however I heard people on this site question their program.  Is there anywhere where you can pick up similar spreadsheets for tracking practice and challenge data?  Thanks

Thanks for replying.  I may try using this one for rounds however  I was looking for one that measured progress in practice challenges like  short game  10 balls at 10 yard increments within ____  feet of target. Putting from various feet. Driving within an imaginary fairway etc. then compared results on the same tests through the season.  I might try to make one myself but then I have to come up with test protocols myself.  No use reinventing e wheel if someone else has done it? 

thanks again

I'm curious.  Why not simply play golf, and track the commonly used statistics from your actual rounds?  Fairways, GIR, putts per GIR, scrambling, etc...  

Stats, along with a valid, accurate handicap should give you everything you need to chart progress and determine where your opportunities lie.  No?

By the way, welcome back!

I seem to remember that you joined the site some time ago but haven't been too active.  I remember the user name because along with golf, I run triathlons and wondered if it was an interest of yours as well....?

Regardless, it's good to hear from you again.  Stick around!

Thanks david,

I know there are a lot of different coaching and practice philosophies but for me it's also practical.  I get to play once a week but I can practice 5 days a week ( in the summer) I may only hit 10 drivers that round.  If I slice one ob My stats for the week are toast and show one mistake and not true progress.  Instead, if I can measure weekly success on 50 shots I have a better picture.  I also have trouble staying in the flow of a round while keeping stats that matter.  Like did I increase 3 puts because of putting or because of poor chipping pitching or bunker play.

Probably my 3rd reason is I like challenge in practice. For me, Things like this provide structure for that challenge.

I loved triathlons and did them for 15 years. Unfortunatly a back injury / surgery has kept me out for the past 4 years.  My son is really into golf so I'm having a lot of fun with him.  You know how crazy we are as triathletes and meticulous planning and tracking is part of the sport.

Thanks again

It's part of their elite golfer improvment system.  Most of the site revolves around this system.

Thanks

Ok, did you join their program?

Or, are you looking for templates similar to those they list?

I was looking for templates similar to thiers. I'm not really interested in their plan.  I know I have tracked data like this when coaching different sports. I know I have seen similar assessment sheets and some of the tests are close to those on trackman, SAM and flightscope. That's why I thought there may be some speadsheets floating around.  If it's origional in golf though I may just buy their program. They deserve the biusness if they are doing something good and origional.

Thanks again guys

I have written an application using Excel which I use my data from Game Golf (data can be entered by user in any manner)
The fields are similar to the templates used at golf college, I breakdown the data in recent rounds (increments in five rounds)
use charts to show analysis, use GG analysis for comparison and create a summary review.
I track results mainly with putts made and missed by distance, proximity in both GIR and greenside play with sand play.
Other stats collected are birdies, pars, bogeys and dbl bog or greater, one putt holes, 3-putts, penalties, scoring per hole.

If you are interested, I'll post a few screen shots or send me a pm.

Here are a few screenshots of charts and summaries.
Each Chart represents different data in the program.

Very interesting screen shots and tracking there. I assume that you are having to manually take it from GG to Excel and there is not something I missed about being able to get access to the raw data or being able to export the data?

 

Thanks

That is correct. I use a template sheet and the round review takes a half hour to extract the data manually.
Hopefully someday access to the raw data will be possible. Then @RandallT and I will be in Heaven. lol

Great site for your junior golfers and thanks for sharing your spreadsheet.
My club is fortunate to have s great Junior Golf program.
I've been active in support and helping the past several years.
It was initiated by our Head Pro roughly 7 or 8 years ago.
I think the PGA is actively promoting Junior Golf very well nowadays.
And many clubs are adapting the Tee it Forward program which gives the kids a place to play.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
