Reading one round
The moment you finish, the round is broken down for you. Here is what each part is asking, and which parts are worth your time.
Your Mindset Index, out of 100
Every round produces one score out of 100, built from the codes you logged:
- Mindset Index (M.I.) — how much of the round you played present. This is the headline number.
- Flow — after a mindful shot, how often the next one was mindful too. Did you keep it going?
- Recovery — after a lapse, how often the very next shot was mindful. Did one bad shot stay one bad shot?
Flow and Recovery are not indexes of their own. Each is set against what that round’s Mindset alone would be expected to give, and the arrows on the tile say whether you were above (▲), below (▼) or level (=) with it. Tap the tile to see the figures.
Where it actually went
The round is taken apart in the ways that let you act on it — by shot type, by hole type, by the two nines, start & finish, walking, hole by hole and where mindset slips occur. Each view shows where your presence held and where it did not, and you can drill down for more detail.
- Mindful
- Focus
- Routine
- Emotion
Alongside it, the app names your top opportunities for the round: a shot type and a stretch of the round, each marked High, Medium or Low.
What the round was really like
The conditions you logged before teeing off are shown back to you with the round, so the score has its context attached. The Trends page lines these up against how present you were.
A 79 in a gale after four hours’ sleep is not the same round as a 79 on a calm morning, and six months later you will not remember which was which.
How to use it
Look at one thing. Every round tells you a great deal — pick the part that stood out most and take it into your next round. What repeats across your rounds is where the lasting gains are.
