In this video, Dan Parker explains how close to the flag amateur golfers hit their approach shots into greens by handicap. With the help of data from Arccos golf, he also sheds a light on how many greens you should be hitting per round as well as how close you should be to the flag from different distances away. The chances are, you’re not hitting it as close as you think you are – especially from short range, but Dan has all the answers in this video so be sure to watch to the end.

To be perfectly honest, if you're a mid to high handicapper, hitting the greens in regulation shouldn't even be a thought, it's better to be on the par 3 in two, par 4 in 3 and on the par 5 in 4, if you can achieve that in a controlled manor, then your not going to have those blow up holes as often, if you are more realistic with your expectations, you will play better golf and who knows, you may even enjoy it more. 😉
Great info. thanks for the tips…
