Fighting the War on Double Bogeys (and other stats) w/ Mike Hutchinson
Mike Hutchinson from Arccos Golf joins us with extensive research from their massive database of golf shots. Our main topic is uncovering what causes double bogeys the most and how they translate to scoring potential across handicap levels—we think you'll be surprised by the results!
Other topics we cover include:
How much does play frequency affect handicaps?
How to choose between long irons and fairway woods/hybrids based on data and ball-striking tendencies
What are the most important stats to keep track of?
Which parts of the game separate higher handicaps and "average" players
How big of a penalty is being short-sided?

The wrists control the clubface, so measuring their actions makes sense. Hackmotion is a cutting-edge wrist sensor that tells you precisely what your wrists are doing in the golf swing with an app. It can show whether you are too open or closed and methods to mitigate the issue. They have just released a significant upgrade in their sensor, and it's more accurate than ever.
So, if you would like to stop the guesswork while you practice, check out an exclusive offer on their newest release here.
