@LouStagner Hi Lou - is this biased because "a 6" is more likely to be closer to a 6.4 than a 5.5 where "a 12" is less so? So your database is showing something like 6.1 vs 11.9 rather than 6.0 vs 12.0?
@LouStagner The holes Tiger makes bogey on are likely to be the harder ones. The holes the 10 makes par on are likely to be the easy ones. I think 68% would be the answer if each played a random par 3, 4, or 5. If they’re playing the same hole I think the odds would be quite a bit less
@wesleybryangolf If you’re good enough all you have to do is keep posting numbers until your number is good enough to win. You are good enough (as I’m sure you know). Keep posting numbers and you’ll win when your time comes around.
@acaseofthegolf1 Sometimes it can make sense if you can use this to go before your opponents. If they hold and then you have to putt that’s different from being able to hole it first and have them putt to halve the hole. Otherwise I agree
@brianmanzella@paulwood79 I think it’s always a good thing to view that sentence as a possible conclusion. It might not end up being your conclusion but eliminating it from the possibilities is not likely to create rigorous results.
@HBNamic@LouStagner@ArccosGolf Not in the slightest :) it’s hilarious and who among us hasn’t hit the green side bunker shot 80 yards. Everyone understands.
@practicalgolf They’re talking physically demanding clearly. Golf is perhaps the hardest to do well. But pretty much anyone can go play. Not true of big wave surfing for example where 90% of the planet would die if they tried. And that’s likely an underestimate.
@LouStagner My irons normally fade a little, so my start line is half way between the flag and the two trunked tree behind the green. Finishing on the two trunked tree. 6 iron which is about 178 club. Hoping to end up basically middle of the green. Then two putts from there
