Lou Stagner’s stat of the week

The thing with Stats is that you can’t personalise them you yourselves directly which a few are trying to do here. You might perform much better on some holes on your own course than the stats in the table suggest and occasionally do worse on them too but the times you do worse you may make it up on holes you normally don’t.
Also remember that most people play worse than handicap more times than to it, so over 100s of rounds for thousands of people the above stats will stack up.
for me the take away, as a mid handicapper, is about the likelihood of being over par on a hole and that the pars and odd birdie are going to be random. Also an early couple of bad holes will not likely ruin the round as I’m just as likely to bogey SI over a single figure SI.
