Where to Focus takes your Strokes Gained data and turns it into a clear prescription: the one shot type costing you the most strokes relative to your goal handicap. Rather than leaving you to interpret your stats, it tells you exactly where to direct your practice for the biggest impact.
Swipe the card to see secondary focus areas ranked below your top priority.
Locking In a focus area
Tap "Lock this in" to commit to a focus area and start tracking progress. When you lock in:
- Arccos takes a snapshot of your current performance for that shot type as a baseline
- You choose how many strokes to gain as your improvement target (capped at 1.0 strokes per round — the maximum recommended for a single focus area)
- You choose how many rounds to reach that target: 5, 10, 20, or ongoing
- A Then vs. Now comparison tracks your strokes per round for that shot type from lock-in to present
Then vs. Now explained
Then is your average strokes per round for the focus shot type at the time you locked in. Now is your average since locking in. The difference is your measured improvement.
Adjusting your focus
Tap the gear icon on a locked-in card to adjust your improvement target, change the number of rounds, or reset the lock-in entirely.
Even if your weakest area seems obvious, use the data to confirm it. Sometimes what feels like a putting problem is actually an approach game issue creating long first putts.
