It’s time for the first ever Data Experience with Shot Scope. 4 lucky THP Forum members heading to Hammock Beach Golf Resort for multiple days of golf, data, fun and oh yeah, this is all 100% free including airfare.
Before getting ahead of ourselves however, the Data Experience is coming and just because you will not be at Hammock Beach with the Shot Scope Team, does not mean you cannot win an amazing prize.
How to Enter
We have two teams of three, each captained by part of the Shot Scope team. Team Gavin and Team Jen and each has two forum members on there to round out the teams of three. Team Gavin features @TRyan and @Danimal and Team Jen features @mmaynard11 and @das0
Step 1: Post below and include the following information.
Who will win the match? They will be playing best ball and it will be handicapped.
What device do you currently use to get your distances on the course?
Step 2: Follow along with this Live Update Thread and see if you were right and if you are the lucky winner. The updates will kick off below beginning Friday evening at 7pm ET.
The Prize: The lucky winner who predicts right, a prize pack courtesy of Shot Scope that will include a better way to get distances around the course and collect data and help you become a better golfer.
If you like our weekly contests, make sure you share them across the social media platforms below and check back each day for more new exclusive THP content.
Entries must be submitted by Friday May 13th at 11:59pm ET. The winner will be chosen randomly from those that guessed right. Please remember only one entry per person.
I told you!!! Calamine lotion will do the trick.
I agree!
Firstly – apologies to all those who backed Team Jen. My back was a little sore from day 1 but fortunately @mmaynard11 and @dAS0 stepped up on day 2 we came out the gates fast and even managed to be leading at one point, but it was just one shot too many. Looking forward to getting revenge next year @GavinwithaR1
I had a great few days meeting you all (@JB @TRyan and @Danimal and morgan!) , sharing experiences and learning new words!! ‘are you popping’
Looking forward to diving into the data for the 4 of you when you have enough rounds – @mmaynard11 and @dAS0 I better not see you both with a bigger miss short % than miss long % on putts!! Haha
Thanks to you all for a memorable few days at Hammock Beach – I loved it!
JEN IS ON THE FORUM
Yes!!! Love this!!!! Welcome Jen!!!
It was great meeting you and @GavinwithaR1 and learning more about Shot Scope! I used the H4 exclusively yesterday with great results (results were great on data collection not my shots).
Glad you are on the forum and good luck next year.
THERE SHE IS! Welcome Jen!
Hope you guys had some uneventful travel back home.
Welcome to the forum and great name ?
Welcome to the forum @jenisontheforum great username!

I absolutely knew that @jenisontheforum was verbally assaulting me.
I will never forget how casually she said it… then she paused and asked if any of us knew that that meant haha
But it makes it seem so much nicer coming from those of us with an accent. ?
Get it as close as possible, if there aren’t any penalties you only bring into play by getting closer. If penalties are everywhere, trying to get closer is probably the play.
Even if you aren’t a (relatively) great chipper or pitcher of the ball, in the long run, you’re going to be closer to the hole, and scoring better, pitching or chipping, rather than taking what might be a full swing from 100 yards. Even scratch handicaps miss greens from 100 yards, and even trying to lay up to 100 yards, you aren’t guaranteed to end up in the fairway!
That is 100% what you did.
…and then there was a reference to a hail storm. ?
Why is it that we miss the simple solutions? Darn!
Welcome to the forum! It was great being on your team. I will be sure to be brave on my putts. Would you recommend just hitting approaches closer to improve putting?
@JB stated the word pelters gave him a vision of standing in a hailstorm and being pelted by hail. Or something along those lines. Or maybe @jenisontheforum (yay I get to tag her) mentioned that. ????
That would help as well ? putting is the low hanging fruit though
Now this was funny! When I asked you what had happened about the ball in the foot print. Turned out to be YOUR footprint. HAHAHA!
Being announced tomorrow as we were waiting for some data.
As well as having 4 contests running in the last 2 weeks.
Follow up data analysis for the participants?!
That will be coming straight from Gavin and Jen as the participants get more rounds in.
@jenisontheforum needs more time to celebrate her St Rule Trophy Champion victory.
