Why GIR is the Most Important Stat

More greens = more birdies = lower scores

Best Scoring Predictor

GIR correlates more strongly with score than any other stat. Hit more greens, shoot lower scores. It's that simple.

More Birdie Opportunities

Every GIR gives you a birdie putt. Go from 5 to 9 GIR? That's 4 more birdie chances per round.

Identify Weaknesses

Maybe you're great from 150 but struggle from 100. Or par 3s are your strength. Data shows where to improve.

Track Improvement

Taking lessons? New clubs? Track GIR to see if changes are actually improving your ball striking.

Smarter Practice

Spend practice time on approach distances that cost you the most greens. Make every practice count.

GIR Tracking Questions

What counts as a green in regulation?
On par 3s: hitting the green with your tee shot. On par 4s: hitting the green in 2 shots. On par 5s: hitting the green in 3 shots. Fringe doesn't count.
What's a good GIR percentage by handicap?
Average golfers (15-20 hdcp): 3-5 GIR. Good golfers (5-10 hdcp): 7-9 GIR. Scratch golfers: 11-12 GIR. Tour players: 12-13 GIR. Know your baseline.
How much does GIR affect my score?
Each additional GIR saves about 0.5 strokes on average. Improve from 5 to 8 GIR? That's 1.5 strokes per round just from hitting more greens.
Should I track where my misses go?
Yes! Track left, right, short, or long. Patterns reveal tendencies. Consistently short? Maybe club up. Always right? Fix that in practice.
Is it better to track manually or automatically?
Either works! Manual tracking (marking yes/no per hole) takes 30 seconds per round. GPS tracking is automatic but requires marking shots.
Can I see GIR by specific course?
Yes! Filter your GIR stats by course. You might hit 8 GIR at your home course but only 5 at tougher tracks. Useful for benchmarking.
