The iron skill calculator evaluates your performance for approach shots.
You can also use Hybrids and Woods for your approach shots in this analysis.
Let’s get started
Steps:
- Step 1: Select a position where you hit your shots from: “Fairway” or “Rough” lie
- Step 2: Measure “Total Shot Distance”
- Step 3: Hit 5 Shots and walk to the green.
- Step 4: Remove the two best balls and the two worst balls.
- Step 5: Only the median ball needs to be measured. Measure “Median Remaining Distance”
- Step 6: Insert “Total Shot Distance” & “Median Remaining Distance” into shot calculator to evaluate your skills.
You can test different lies
Skill Calculator – Evaluate your performance
Select your Ball Lie:
Analyze all areas
It is important, to analyze which area has the biggest potential for improvement. Then you decide to train Distance Control or Direction.
After you have evaluated all areas, train the area which has the highest number of shots.
What is your common mistake: Distance Control or Direction?
Distance Control
The distance to a certain length varies a lot
For a example a 130 target
And shots of 65, 105, 110, 130.
Direction
Every shot more or less the same distance but left and right
For example a 130 target
And shots of 127 (25 left), 128 (4 left), 132 (5 right) and 136 (18 right)
Select which area you want to work on
Additional information
Hit 5 Balls to a target.
Walk to the green, the balls will be at different distances to pin.
Remove the two best balls and the two worst balls.
Only the median ball needs to be measured.
For example: You would have 16 meter as a median value.
Measure the median for each shot category.
Measuring only the median gives you a realistic result how good your performance is.
