Here's a calculator to help you figure out Strokes Gained Putting: www.golfrankingstats.com/strokes-gained-calculator/ Check out Mark Broadie's book "Every Shot Counts" to learn more on the topic as well!
Hi, Thankyou I enjoyed your video, Please forgive me for being dumb but wouldn't the expected Avg Putts be specific to the course? or is it that on any course a 5ft putt should take Avg 1.24? Thankyou
Holly472 over all the courses it averages that...yes on any given day the field could be faced with a flat green and they all shoot slightly better averages because it was easier than "normal" but thats why we call them averages and not definites 👍
Thankyou Adam, I have played 3 times now using the calculator, no idea why but my putting has improved, maybe just recording it has made me concentrate more, very happy
I just tried a sample round with the calculator with a 15 handicap and it said the 'expected strokes' number was 40.11. Really?? 40 putts? I hardly ever get to 36 and am usually 28-32.
My wife just asked me why I'm in such a great mood tonight. I told her it was because Santa Claus came early. She said, "Huh?" I said, "A new Todd Kolb video showed up in my Subscription list a day early and it's as informative as all his others, so Santa has to be responsible!"
Ben....thanks!! Hope this info on strokes gained putting helped...the topic can be a little confusing but we did our best to keep it simple....more good info to come this summer
Stupid question of the day. How do I know the length of the putt. Sure I can guess an 8 footer but would probably have a tough time telling between a 23 and 27 footer.

Nice video! Keep it up!
What’s the formula/ math in calculating this? For the putting example.

Holly472 yes that can happen...because you are now focused on what you are doing.
Keep it up 👍

Paul....great question and thanks for watching....our suggestion would be to walk the putt off from the ball to the cup...this is a general guide
This guy has horrible 2's.
Yes, I was wondering what 'ds' meant . . . . ! Turns out its '25'
