Great information but the narration was a struggle

The information and application is the future of golf training. Probably going to just buy the physical book instead of having Casey Kasem read the rest of it to me. Was a struggle to listen to

Root al information for golfer

Good narration. Good writing. Because there is so much data, it does feel like a text book rather than a page-turner, but well worth it

information on the strokes gained calculations

not just strokes gained knowledge, but how to help your game as well. great read!

Complicated but groundbreaking

A more comprehensive, objective and applicable approach to tracking statistics. Will definitely consider this moving forward.

Learn how to be a better golfer

This book offers a way for all golfers to get better and enjoy the game more. Thank you for writing this book.

Super valuable

The only frustrating part is that there seems to be no way to access the tabular information, which is frequently referenced in the text. Still incredibly valuable insight, despite that.

Only for the serious golfer

Not for the casual golf. Very detailed analysis of the best to look at what lowers your golf handicap.

Finally Moneyball for golf

Data, not hunches hits me between the eyes with its truth. After playing golf for 50 years, and accepting all the old stories about what is needed to shoot lower scores, its all been wrong. This book tells the truth about where lower scores actually come from.

Reads like a textbook.

One concept: putting isn't as important as we think and is a hard start to track. 3 chapters later and giving 30 examples of pga tour instances. I think this is for staticians and not golfers.

Statistics not advice

Over 90% of the time is spent discussing statistics to promote 'strokes gained', with hardly any advice on how to use it to improve your game as advertised in the subtitle very sadly. Extremely misleading, especially as most of the very limited advice, towards the very end only, is just common sense for anyone who's ever played golf. This is really just a thesis in support of using 'strokes gained' as a statistical tool. Such a shame.
