and PM me if you want to join a fantasy golf league...I know, it's kind of weird to have a "fantasy" golf league, but it's fun to follow the events. Especially when it's so freaking cold this time of year.
The two most vital stats are driving distance and putting, the number of putts per hole. Available on the PGA Tour.com website.
Trust me. I wager on golf matchups every week from March thru October and those two categories trump everything by 7000+ yards. You hear commentators promoting garbage like greens in regulation and scrambling and all-around stats and it's laughable. I ran two years worth of stats thru Excel in every category in 1999 and 2000 and the combo of driving distance and putts per hole destroyed everything.
I really should shut up about this. My friends and I clean up on golf matchups using that knowledge, while other golf wagerers focus on baloney like local knowledge. But it seems safe enough to mention on DU.
