Tim Martin,Analytics is "systematic computational analysis".
If you know how far you carry your 7 iron vs your 6 iron, that's analytics. If you pace off yardage, or measure it with a laser, or have a GPS device, that's analytics. If you read putts, that's analytics. If you go back and the end of the round and count up fairways, GIR's, up and down %'s, sand saves, and putts, that's analytics. If you have been fitted for clubs, that's analytics, whether Trackman was involved or not.
If you don't do ANY of those, then you are as pure as the driven snow, and truly unusual among passionate golfers. Read no farther!
On the other hand, if you ARE doing ANY of these, then your issue isn't with analytics, but rather with the DEGREE of analytics that others are using, right? And that might bring into question WHY you feel that way, right? (Note that I'm not saying that you SHOULD use more analytics, just wondering why it bothers you that others use analytics to a greater degree than you.)
Is it possible that you are using a common coping strategy for dealing with being change resistant by attacking change as bad, when instead the real reason for your discomfort is that it's threatening to deal with the possibility that there's a better way, but that you might have to work to change what you are doing?
See? I warned you not to read on!
