Your questions answered straight, then the concrete stuff: how close you finish by distance, your tee dispersion by club, and every tee shot plotted. Over 57 analyzable rounds.

Is your game actually improving?
vs
Each point is your strokes gained per round vs the Tour for that period — higher is better. The dashed line is the Tour (0); a rising line means you're closing the gap. This is the same ruler your other SG numbers use, held fixed so a moving handicap can't hide a gain.

Path to the next level — skills you're below the tour ceiling at, ranked by realistic gain: how many strokes are on the table × how gettable they are. A 6-footer and a 190-yard iron aren't the same bet — short putts, chips and wedges respond fast to practice, long-iron ball-striking improves slowly. The hidden ones don't show in your round-to-round view.
If you closed all of these you'd play about 2.4 strokes better per round. The hidden ones don't show up in your round-to-round view because they're masked inside a bigger number or happen too rarely to swing a round.

3-6 ft putts Quick win also a driver
54% vs 70% at the ceiling · gap 16 pts · 3.0 putts/round
You make 54% from here; the ceiling makes 70%. You face this ~3.0 times a round, so closing it comes straight off your score.

6-10 ft putts Quick win hidden
29% vs 38% at the ceiling · gap 9 pts · 2.5 putts/round
You make 29% from here; the ceiling makes 38%. You face this ~2.5 times a round, so closing it comes straight off your score.

100–125 yd approaches Quick win hidden
28.3 ft vs 19 ft at the ceiling · gap +9.3 ft · 2.4 shots/round
From 100–125 yd you finish 28.3 ft from the pin vs 19 ft at the ceiling — 9.3 ft farther, every time. These are scoring clubs: closer means birdie looks instead of scrambles. Foundation first: sharpen your closer approaches before chasing proximity from out here.

75–100 yd approaches Quick win hidden
26.9 ft vs 17 ft at the ceiling · gap +9.9 ft · 1.2 shots/round
From 75–100 yd you finish 26.9 ft from the pin vs 17 ft at the ceiling — 9.9 ft farther, every time. These are scoring clubs: closer means birdie looks instead of scrambles.

Up & down from fairway Quick win hidden
61% vs 68% at the ceiling · gap 7 pts · 1.4 chips/round
You save par 61% of the time from fairway vs 68% at the ceiling. It's only ~1.4 a round, so your round-to-round view never flags it — but it's a specific, learnable gap.
0.1 strokes/round

10-15 ft putts Doable hidden
16% vs 23% at the ceiling · gap 7 pts · 2.1 putts/round
You make 16% from here; the ceiling makes 23%. You face this ~2.1 times a round, so closing it comes straight off your score.

Up & down from sand Doable hidden
36% vs 52% at the ceiling · gap 16 pts · 0.6 chips/round
You save par 36% of the time from sand vs 52% at the ceiling. It's only ~0.6 a round, so your round-to-round view never flags it — but it's a specific, learnable gap.

125–150 yd approaches Doable hidden
31.9 ft vs 22 ft at the ceiling · gap +9.9 ft · 1.8 shots/round
From 125–150 yd you finish 31.9 ft from the pin vs 22 ft at the ceiling — 9.9 ft farther, every time. These are scoring clubs: closer means birdie looks instead of scrambles. Foundation first: sharpen your closer approaches before chasing proximity from out here.

From 150–175 yd you finish 39.4 ft from the pin vs 27 ft at the ceiling — 12.4 ft farther, every time. These are scoring clubs: closer means birdie looks instead of scrambles. Foundation first: sharpen your closer approaches before chasing proximity from out here.

54.7 ft vs 34 ft at the ceiling · gap +20.7 ft · 1.9 shots/round
From 175–200 yd you finish 54.7 ft from the pin vs 34 ft at the ceiling — 20.7 ft farther, every time. These are scoring clubs: closer means birdie looks instead of scrambles. Foundation first: sharpen your closer approaches before chasing proximity from out here.

How close you finish vs a +2.4's level — based on your last 20 rounds. Approach proximity in feet, per distance, held to your own handicap (not GIR); worst 5% of finishes trimmed.

From 200+ yd you're 22.9 ft long of level too, but read that one loosely — long approaches mix par-5 gambles and recoveries, so the number is noisier than a real skill leak.

Tee shots vs your base dispersion, month by month Show ▾Hide ▴

Each square holds your base pattern (the ellipse you set in the app) and that month's actual tee shots. ★ = the month you stayed most on-pattern.

Yellow = your base dispersion (the pattern you set in the app), same every month. Rose gold = that month's actual dispersion, drawn on the same centre so you can see if your real spread is tighter or wider than your base. Dots are the actual tee shots; number is the % inside your base. Same scale everywhere (±63 yd). The worst 5% of shots (25) are filtered out.

Barely predicts your scoring (worth knowing!): Approach depth miss · Fairways hit · Tee shape execution · Mid putts made (6–10 ft) · Lag putts left close — good diagnostics, wrong scoreboard.

Levels weight recent rounds heavier (half-life ~8–10 rounds), so one hot day bends the line without breaking it. Proven = ≥90% confidence the level moved since the anchor · Probably = 70–90% · everything else shows the level and stays honest. Strokes figures are v1 approximation — refine against the SG engine.
