Summary

Welcome to the "Saturday Morning Golf Stat" from the Hack it Out Golf Podcast. It's been common advice for so long: if you can't reach a green, lay up to a particular full swing yardage, so that you don't have to judge those tricky in-between distances. In this episode, Lou brings the data to Greg and Mark to see how many golfers really do score better if they follow that advice. The answer: not many at all. Each of these will be a mini-episode (10-15 minutes long) about an interesting golf stat. We will discuss what you can learn, and most importantly, how you can apply this on the golf course to lower your scores and lower your handicap. Listen on your drive to the golf course or over your Saturday morning coffee! Data is sourced from Arccos Golf. They have over 1 BILLION shots in their database.
