A 15 handicap hits a wedge from 50 yards to 20 feet and drops his head in disappointment. Would his reaction be different if he learned that shot was actually much better than average? Of all the mistakes golfers make, the ones tied to their expectations can be the costliest.
The good news is this is a problem you can solve without a second of practice, and that’s why we’re excited by our Golf Digest+ interactive, "How Do You Compare?"
We poured through our partner Arccos Golf’s data of more than 750 million shots hit from more than 16 million rounds to provide benchmarks around a wide range of handicaps for shots of every distance. Then we layered in stats from the PGA Tour to see how you might match up against the best players in the world.
Check it out to see how you compare to other everyday golfers and tour players. |
