Hi Chase--Do you know if they ever got the multiple stats tables up as far as 09 compared to this year compared to Stracka career or if they are going to even create them. Thanks for your time--

GJ24 - We are still working on more statistics. We've had some other items with higher priority...

Thanks for the update GR--

Are you guys working on a Greens In Regulation stat? It's shocking to me that it was somehow left off the Major stat cateogories. Also the Best Scores Section needs to have the option of 18-holes to 9-holes -- I play a lot of 9-hole rounds and when I click onto Best Scores all that shows up are the 9-hole rounds. And the arrow (green arrow down/red arrow up) thing is still very confusing.

This post has been removed.

been wondering about this myself

Can we expand Fantasy to cover some of the other Tours too?

Does anyone with Stracka ever look at this "Having trouble with the site?" topical? I've only seen 1 reply to our suggestions or comments, and the only upgrade I've seen is the year-to-year stat separation. Perhaps they shouldn't have posted this if they didn't want feedback. I understand that the Fantasy games & Stracka store are high priority for the site, but, their are a few of us that use the site for Golf Stats & Handicapping. The Greens in Regulation stat is still M.I.A -- the Top Scores section still displays the lowest numerical score (including 9-hole rounds) as opposed to the lowest Handicapped round. The Putting section is confusing & wrong. There should be a way to track your stats for each individual course that one plays. And that's just a few. I know these things are possible because I've seen them utilized on other golf sites.... and those other golf websites were FREE.

Yes SB. I read the thread.

There is a GIR stat. It's calculated on every round. It should be on your summary, but for some reason it must not be displayed. I will get to it.

Top scores is actually based on the differential, not the actual score. Having a sort for 9 hole rounds and 18 hole rounds is something I can add.

Thanks GreenReader.... I will sleep well tonight knowing that I hit 31.11% of my Greens in Regulation in 2010.... geesh, is that pathetic (but it's early in the year). I wish my cable guy would react as quickly as you did. Thanks again. Next time I need something I'll just yell GREENREADER!!!!!!!!!! as loud as I can. Thank You.

Greens in Regulation:

How is this 'AUTO-Calculated'? I don't get it. It seems like what I write on my scorecard and then after seeing what your system auto inputs, it never matches up quite right. It's usually 1 or 2 off. So sometimes it will show I hit 9 greens in regulations but on my tracking I only show 7 etc. Please advise... I am assuming it has to do with what you put down for your number of putts, but I don't think that is bulletproof. Also for tracking 'putts' should we only mark putts as actual putts from the green? What if I put from the fringe or light rough? Would that be a 'chip' or 'sand'?

If you are not on the putting surface of the green it's not a putt. Because the GIR is done automatically and not with a check-box it is easy to fool. If I hit the green with my second, then put my first putt long and off the green, the next stroke is a chip. If I leave a tap in from there I have a two putt bogey which the automatic feature views as a missed green.

this same thing happened during my last round (Sand Barrens North - listed as hole #13) I hit the green, my first putt went to the collar (just off the green). Used putter for 'chip' and then tapped in for bogey. Didn't get credit for the GIR, scrambling and up & down stat are off as well (since there was no opportunity for a scramble).

I guess if you putt off the green, you lose the GIR since you are no longer on the green in regulation.
