Game Stats

Post by dko »

This is pretty trivial, but it's been bugging me for some time. After each round, there is a listing of each player's stats for that round. One of them is "3-Par Distance to Pin." I know it's not an average of how far your tee shots on par threes were from the pin (unless there is a serious miscalculation inherent to Links), but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

Anyone know?

Yeah Im pretty sure its the average distance to pin after 1st shot on the par 3 holes. If you use metric system it shows in meters, and if you use yards/feet it seems to show in yards. Possibly you expected it to show in feet instead of yards? The number has always seemed to be about right to me, but I dont think I've ever had a particularly close look at it.

That would explain my confusion. I always assumed it was feet. Thank you Adelade.
