Pro Analysis

The Pro Analysis feature provides the most advanced and detailed performance insights in Upgame. It goes far deeper than Basic, offering strokes gained trends, dispersions, Diamonds, and multi-page reports across every part of the game.

 

STEP 1

Accessing Pro Analysis

  • Log in and tap the graph icon at the bottom left of the home screen.

  • This opens the Analysis Page.

 

STEP 2

Global Filters

At the top right, use the Global Filters bar to customize your analysis view:

  • Benchmarks: Compare against PGA or LPGA.

  • Round Types: Choose between practice sessions or tournaments.

  • Time Windows: Select preset ranges or create a custom date range.

  • Round Criteria: Analyze rounds by best, worst, first, or last.

 
 

STEP 3

Dashboard & Insights Tabs

At the top of the Analysis page you’ll see two tabs:

  • Dashboard → Full statistical breakdown with strokes gained, key numbers, trend graphs, and analysis sections.

  • Insights → Highlights your top 3 performance areas and 3 areas that need improvement for fast takeaways.

 

STEP 4

Strokes Gained Overview

  • Dashboard shows a graph of your strokes gained benchmarked against your selected tour (PGA or LPGA).

  • You can compare against:

    • Player profiles (Tour Pro, Elite Amateur, Club Golfer).

    • Your own previous performances by creating benchmarks from past rounds.

 

STEP 5

Key Numbers Section

  • Displays Driving Accuracy & Distance, with blue lines representing tour standards.

  • Tap View Details → access a 4-page summary:

    1. Scoring

    2. Accuracy tee → green, including end shot result metrics

    3. Accuracy around the green (50 yards & in)

    4. Putting conversion rates from different distances

  • On the main page you’ll also see:

    • Scoring summary by hole type → Par 3s, Par 4s, Par 5s.

    • Traditional stats:

      • Greens in Regulation (GIR)

      • Up & Down %

      • Average putts per GIR

 

STEP 6

Trend Graphs

Coaches and players can track improvement over time with round-by-round graphs. Each bar represents a single round.

  • Tee-to-Green Trend Graph → Overall strokes gained breakdown.

  • Tee Performance Trend Graph → Shows tee shots across rounds.

  • Approach Trend Graph → Strokes gained on approach play.

  • Short Game Trend Graph → Strokes gained in wedges and chips.

  • Putting Trend Graph → Strokes gained putting each round.

 

STEP 7

Tee Analysis

Tap View Tee Analysis to dive deeper:

  • Dispersion Percentages within distance windows.

  • Dispersion Graphs showing end shot results relative to the target line.

  • End Shot Results separated into 5 categories:

    • In Play

    • Minor Miss

    • Major Miss

    • Penalty 1 (hazard)

    • Penalty 2 (lost ball/re-tee)

 

STEP 8

Approach Analysis (7 Pages)

A complete breakdown of approach performance:

  1. Strokes Gained vs Distance → Highlights weak distance windows.

  2. Feet vs Distance → Average proximity to the pin by yardage.

  3. Target Feet vs Distance → Proximity to intended target instead of flag.

  4. End Result vs Distance → Color-coded by end shot outcome.

  5. Dispersion Page → Charts showing shot dispersions relative to the target or flag; compare target vs. flag dispersion.

  6. End Shot Results (6 categories):

    • Green Hit

    • Easy

    • Medium

    • Hard

    • Penalty 1

    • Penalty 2

  7. Comparison Pages → Analyze dispersions and results across multiple windows.

 

STEP 9

Upgame Diamonds

Exclusive tool in Pro Analysis to refine approach targeting:

  • Each diamond suggests the safest aim point based on your dispersions.

  • Example: If the right corner shows “7y,” it means aim 7 yards from the right edge if the pin is tucked closer than 7 yards from that side.

  • Diamonds are generated using your best shot percentages from rounds logged.

  • Can be filtered by clubs instead of distances.

  • Helps build smarter aim strategies on approach shots.

 

STEP 10

Short Game Analysis (3 Pages)

Tap View S.Game Analysis to see:

  1. Proximities by difficulty → Easy, Medium, Hard short game shots.

  2. Dispersion Charts → Shot spread patterns for wedges and chips.

  3. Distance Breakdown → Average proximities to the pin across distances.

STEP 11

Putting Analysis (6 Pages)

Tap View Putting Analysis to access:

  1. Strokes Gained vs Distance → Quick view of strongest and weakest putting ranges.

  2. Speed vs Distance → Color-coded bars showing speed control outcomes by distance (e.g., Holed, Past, Short, SZ Past, SZ Short).

  3. Conversion Rates → Make rates by distance windows, including 3-putt percentages.

  4. Break Analysis → Track performance on left-to-right, right-to-left, uphill, and downhill putts.

  5. Line Analysis → Percentage of misses Left, Right, or On Line.

  6. Slope Analysis → Categorize performance by break severity (gentle, moderate, severe).
