Putts-- Putts made. Putts missed-- short, long, etc.

Seems like there were some other things on there also--weather that day, course conditions, etc..A player can see after several rounds the patterns that may develop. On long par 3's, for example, one may notice that nearly all misses are short, right.

Tom's tour players used these sheets. They then knew better how to practice, i.e., what they needed to work on. Most people tend to practice, it seems, what they are already good at... most of the time.

Thanks Lagster...I believe club selection was part of the analysis too. If someone has a copy of the Analyzer sheet...how about scanning it and posting it on line.

There was a copy of Jodie Mudd's record breaking final round scorecard from (record score of 63) the 1991 British Open on the internet at one point that had markings on it that were in line with the above "Analyzer" analysis. Hmmmm...another opportunity for spreadsheet analysis!!!
