Arccos, the pioneers of data analysis and artificial intelligence for golf, has announced a revolutionary new product feature titled: Strokes Gained By Club. This groundbreaking new feature allows players to see which clubs in their bag are gaining or costing them strokes on the course, and to make more informed purchasing and set-up decisions via head-to-head product comparisons.

The term "Strokes Gained" is often used on television coverage as a means to demonstrate why a Tour player is playing well, or perhaps, not so well. That level of insight can now help millions of amateurs across the world; all with the common goal of getting better.

It was Einstein that said: "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result" and as golfers, we're all too guilty of that. This new system allows golfers to tailor their approach to playing the game so they can make conscious decisions which will ultimately see them improve. 

Strokes Gained by Club was built by Arccos’ in-house data and engineering teams, which leveraged the company’s dataset that includes more than 500-million shots and billions of related data points recorded during over 10-million rounds played by Arccos members.
