1 Shape failure → missed green seen 196× high conf. details ▸
196 approaches with shape failures → 99 missed greens (50%) → -36.6 SG.
On course: Aim center of green when both sides have trouble — your shape reliability is the variable, not your line.
Practice: Range work on shape commitment — same target with different shapes back-to-back.
2 Short-side: causes & consequences seen 50× med conf. details ▸
50 short-sides (2.8/round). Mostly from over-drawn long-left. After: 2 birdies, 21 pars, 24 bogeys (51% bogey rate, 45% up-and-down). Chip+putt SG on these holes: -8.9.
On course: Never aim at a short-side pin. Take the fat side every time. Your short-sides are mostly caused by over-drawn long-left. When it happens, you bogey 51% of the time.
Worth asking them:
- Before each approach to a tucked pin, are you identifying WHERE THE FAT SIDE IS — and aiming at it?
- Did you have a clear acceptable miss zone picked BEFORE the swing, or were you aimed at the pin?
- On the short-sides that resulted in bogey, did you commit to the safe target or change your line to the pin at the last second?
- What's your default rule for tucked pins — center of green every time, or judge each one individually? Players who score the lowest pick a rule and stick to it.

How to read this (20 rounds analyzed)
• Leaks ranked by relative impact, not absolute strokes saved (the chain engine's stroke estimate is window-calibrated and not shown here).• Single-window view — one cold round is noise; real trends need the multi-round signal-vs-noise comparison.
You over-draw 42% of your approaches — they miss left and drop your greens-hit from 70% to 56%.
Shape failure → missed green seen 196× — 196 approaches with shape failures → 99 missed greens (50%) → -36.6 SG.
On course: Aim center of green when both sides have trouble — your shape reliability is the variable, not your line.
Approach distance leaks: 200 yds+, 125-150 yds seen 91× — Leaking yardages — 200 yds+: 13% GIR, -0.15 SG/shot | 125-150 yds: 68% GIR, -0.18 SG/shot
On course: Across 200 yds+, 125-150 yds, default to center-of-green and away from short-side trouble. A 30-foot putt is worth two strokes saved on a short-side miss.
