Testers Wanted – Arccos Caddie Platform

Which statistics are most important to track during a round of golf?

It’s not a trick question. Then, again, maybe it is. In some sense, every piece of data is potentially informative.

Regardless, golfers are notoriously bad at self-assessment. We overestimate how far we hit the ball and often conveniently forget the flubbed chips, three-putts and occasional mulligan. But if you’re a golfer who wants to improve, accurate shot-tracking is vital.

Arccos’ AI-powered Caddie platform allows golfers to track, record and analyze every shot.

With that, we’d like to get feedback from MyGolfSpy readers.

Spirit of the Game: Lee Trevino

Spirit of the Game: Lee Trevino

August 19, 2021

All golfers are self-made, but the man who made the most out of what he started with has to be Lee Trevino.

Trevino rose from a three-room shack with no plumbing in east Dallas to become arguably the most consistent shotmaker the game has ever seen.

He was a squat 5-foot-7, 180-pound ball of fire whose rapid wit made players and galleries laugh, but whose game commanded their respect
