How Do I Read the Dispersion Graph?

The Dispersion Graph is a scatter plot showing where your shots with a specific club land relative to your target. Each dot is an individual tracked shot, giving you a visual picture of your consistency that a single distance number can't show.

 

Reading the dots

Green dots are shots where you gained strokes. Red dots are shots where you lost strokes. Gray dots are neutral shots — no strokes gained or lost.

Tap any dot to see details about that specific shot.

 

The oval

The oval is a statistical ellipse covering approximately 68% of your shots. It represents your typical spread — your reliable landing zone with that club. Dots outside the oval are dimmed as outliers.

 

The axes

Left/Right axis — For drives, this is distance from the fairway centerline (accounting for the shape of the hole). For approach and short game shots, it's distance from your target line to the pin.

Distance axis — How far the shot went relative to your target.

 

Spread

Spread is the equivalent radius of the ellipse — a single number that captures both your lateral and distance variance. Spread is rated Tight, Average, or Wide, with thresholds that adjust based on your goal handicap so you're benchmarked against players at your own level.

Look at the overall shape of the oval, not individual outlier dots — the pattern is what matters for course management and targeted practice. If your oval is consistently off-center left or right, that's your directional bias showing up visually.
