Updated: 01/05/08 | | 'WILL LOWER YOUR SCORES!' | | Strengths:
The ease of input, once you get the hang of it, it takes no time at all.
The number of Stats you receive and the detail of the Stats fantastic.
Enables you to practice effectively - the right areas.[Update 01/05/08] This is my updated review to the New Improved Strokeaverage.com site.
The information it is able to produce and analyse is fantastic, although yet to use the report section "Coaches Corner" I have looked at the examples and they look very informative. As I said previously it enables you to target the weaker areas of your game. And when you do it will hopefully show the improvements made, as you keep adding round after round. | | Weaknesses:
As some others have mentioned maybe more visual display to Stats and be useful to see which sides of fairways and greens were missed. Might also be an idea to have a "note page" for each round where players could note anything from what they drank, ate on course or before too how they warmed up or how they felt.[Update 01/05/08] Only weakness is it might be easier and quicker to input your round if you only had the options of the clubs you had already selected, ie if you haven't got a 5 wood or utility 2 don't show it as an option on inputing your scores.
Hopefully the site will soon produce more visual reports as has been mentioned.
| | Overall:
"What you think you need to work on is not always what you actually need to work on to improve" For me this statement from Richard Finch sums it up, too many of us don't work on the things we need to improve our game and this Analysis Software by StrokeAverage.com shows exactely where you need to improve even down to left to right putts!!
Excellent Product[Update 01/05/08] Great site, great product the more you put in the more you'll get out. The new site has poll's links to other sites too.
If your a keen competive golfer then this site will definately help reduce your scores! |

| | | Posted: 06/12/07 | | 'IF YOU WANT STATS THEN GO HERE!' | | Strengths:
Inputting data of each shot in the round requires an excellent memory, or a notebook or voice recorder. Stokeaverage counter this problem with the option of downloading stat sheets, where it details the info needed. It takes some time to enter data at first; however users will find that once they get used to it, inevitably the process will get easier. Obviously, taking the time to do so is rewarding – stats couldn’t be collated with just scores, could it?
The analysis features of the strokeaverage site are in depth and easy to understand. Immediately after a round is entered, stats can be viewed. These are broken down into sections, such as par 3, 4 and 5 performances, making it easier to ‘digest’.
Useful additions to the site include the equipment list. This is where a user can select what equipment they use, which adds to the analysis of a round.
Navigation around the site is excellent. Interfaces are clean and crisp and easy to follow. Tutorials can be viewed in order to gain basic information about each area of the site.
| | Weaknesses:
The first step in submitting a round is to search for your course. Finding my home course drew a blank, which involved me having to input the details manually. However, a search for English courses returns a healthy selection of courses. Naturally, as the site develops over the coming months, this database will increase.
As said above, this requires an
excellent memory.
Also, at first, the amount of stats available can be daunting but the user soon gets used to it.
Strokeaverage could be improved by incorporating a handicap tracking device, in addition to the stats. This could be linked to the stats, for example showing how the handicap might change if the number of putts decreases etc. | | Overall:
Overall, strokeaverage.com is a great way to analyse pitfalls in your game. It is easy and fun to use and interesting to see real statistics about your game. 14 day trials can be obtained, with a further annual membership for a small but ultimately worthwhile fee.
