What's the Right Stat Benchmark for Me?

A good listener question for today's episode. Many of us use Arccos or another platform to track performance on the course. What standard should we use for stat comparisons? In this episode, Mark and Lou tackle this question, and it's not as obvious as you might think. Stats don't always move in exactly the same way, so there can be value in comparing yourself to your next milestone, rather than to something more remote (like scratch or a Tour pro). Having stats is good—using them intelligently is better.
