Once the ball lands, your swing is done.
You can’t change it.
You can’t fix it.
You can’t save it.

But you can learn from it.

Most golfers skip this step—or do it emotionally instead of intelligently.
They react. They judge. They spiral.

Great golfers do something different.

They review.

You’ve seen them in videos. Support the app. Get a hat.

Before we can review a shot properly, we need to reset expectations.

A “good shot” is not:

TV golf has conditioned players to expect elite outcomes from every swings which just leads to frustration and emotion.

That’s not reality. The pros are really good, but probably not as good as you think. They don’t make every 8 footer. They don’t hit it to 10 feet from 100 yards every time. Tour average is closer to 18 feet. Those are just the shots that make the telecast.

Keep in mind, every week on TV they are focusing on the leaders. Players that are playing well even for them.

Let’s reset the baseline expectation.

A good shot is:

If the target was smart and the result fits your normal dispersion:
That’s a good shot.

Even if it didn’t look pretty.

Don’t know your typical dispersion? Track shots with Tangent and we’ll show you.

This is the most important filter.

If the answer is yes:

✅ Great. Move on.

You can track additional data if you want, but its not necessary. Stock shots are good. As our skill improves, so will our stock performance.

If the result was not acceptable, review becomes incredibly valuable.

But only if you ask the right questions.

This is where Tangent shines—by turning vague feelings into clear categories you can track over time.

Instead of saying “that was bad,” we want to understand why.

Here are the key review dimensions that matter:

We covered this in commit, but now we can judge. Mental breakdowns often masquerade as swing flaws—but they show up as patterns over time.

Tangent helps you capture that context so you’re not guessing later.

Strike quality explains a lot of outcomes—and when tracked, it reveals whether misses are mechanical or situational.

If you don’t yet have enough feel to tell without looking, you need to be doing the impact drill often.

Not all misses are created equal.

These details matter.
They help you understand why certain shots keep missing the same way.

Tangent captures this so your practice can reflect reality—not ideal lies.

I don’t recommend spending a ton of time practicing impossible lies (I prefer working to avoid them)… but we don’t practice lies with slope often enough.

Our driving ranges are almost always flat. Learn which lies hurt you the most and focus on those first.

A miss that matches your intention is very different from one that doesn’t.
The degree of the shape also matters.

Shape can dramatically impact your dispersion. Hitting the opposite shape to your natural tendency will dramatically increase dispersion. I don’t care what you can do on a simulator or driving range.

I have good news. If you just track your 3 worst shots of every round and learn from them… You’ll improve. These are the 3 shots that define your blowup holes.

Lucky for you, Tangent does the work for you if you track your shots. Talk to the coach in the Coachable Moments section of your post round report.

One bad shot means nothing.

Ten similar misses mean everything.

Review helps you:

This is how you practice intentionally instead of randomly.

Instead of:

You get:

That’s actionable.

Tangent turns post-shot reflection into a system.

It helps you:

This is how you improve faster—without overhauling your swing every week.

Every shot, every round teaches something—if you let it.

Review isn’t about judgment.
It’s about awareness.

When you review shots honestly and consistently:

TRACER isn’t just about hitting better shots.
It’s about learning from every one.

That’s how great golf compounds.
