Stats updated Sep 29, 2026
Your handicap is 7.5. That means on a typical course, you shoot about 7.5 shots over par. A scratch golfer (handicap 0) shoots right at par. Your goal is to get there β and the data below shows you exactly how.
What this means: This score compares your stats to a scratch golfer across all areas of the game β driving, iron play, chipping, bunkers, and putting. 100% means you play like scratch. 72% means you're 72% of the way there. You're close. Two or three things are holding you back. Fix those and you'll drop fast.
Average approach lands 124 feet (41 steps) from the pin β twice scratch's 55 feet. From that distance, three-putts are almost inevitable. The main driver here: 40% of iron shots land short of the green entirely, meaning many approach distances are measured from chip range, not on the green. Club up on every approach. Closing this gap is worth 2β3 strokes per round directly.
Hitting only 35% of greens means you need a perfect chip and putt to save par on most holes. Scratch hits 65%. This is where your approach proximity and miss-short rate are showing up in the scoreboard β they're not separate problems, they're the same problem. More GIRs = more birdie putts = less reliance on a perfect short game every hole.
40% of iron shots land short of the green β almost 1 in 3. Scratch only misses short 10% of the time. You're systematically under-clubbing. This probably costs you 3β4 GIRs per round that should be hits. The fix is simple and immediate: take one more club than feels right on every approach. If you think 7-iron, hit 6. The instinct to hit the "right" club is the problem.
