If you're looking to improve your game and lower your scores, the world-first Golfshot Auto Strokes Gained (ASG) feature is for you.

It's great knowing what you're good at, but the Auto Strokes Gained feature is really designed to tell you what parts of your game need to improve the most.

You'll get a + or - score for Strokes Gained for a variety of different areas, from driving to tee to green, short game and putting so it's easy to see how each part of your game is stacking up and where your biggest opportunities lie.

This then allows you to head to the driving range or practice green with purpose, knowing you're tailoring your training sessions and dedicating your time and effort to addressing those weaknesses.

So if you're serious about shooting lower scores, it's time to give the Auto Strokes Gained feature a try.
