Putting stats
Using Putting Stats to Build a Better Practice Plan
Turn putting numbers into a practice plan that spends time where strokes are actually being lost.
Let the weakness choose the drill
If three-putts are the issue, spend more time on 25- to 45-foot speed control. If short misses are piling up, build a start-line station from three to six feet. If you rarely have birdie looks inside 15 feet, the putting stat may be telling you something about approach play too.
Put the session in focus
FocusGolf pairs naturally with a stats-minded practice plan. On a Wear OS, Apple Watch, or Garmin watch, it tracks shots, distances, club performance, and session history without club sensors. Those trends will not read putts for you, but they do help connect putting numbers with the approach distances and club choices that created those first putts.
A simple weekly plan
| Pattern | Practice response |
|---|---|
| Misses inside 6 feet | Gate drill and pressure makes |
| Frequent three-putts | Ladder drill and pace games |
| Poor birdie conversion | 10- to 20-foot read and speed work |
Re-test often
Give a drill two weeks, then check the numbers again. Practice should answer the stat, not become a permanent ritual.
