PLAYER AND SHOT INFORMATION
Section 4
• I f the player is short of the centre of the green more than 50% of the time, assign an area 10 yards short of the front edge of the green as the landing zone from where the approach shot would be played, and rate the hole using that area for the approach shot information. There are conditions under which the Transition Zone is not used even though the hole length falls within Transition Zone yardages. If the team consensus is that the player cannot reach the centre of the green because of an effective length correction factor (roll, elevation, dogleg, or forced lay-up) or an obstacle preventing the shot from reaching the green (e.g. bunker in front of green) then a Transition Zone rating should not be applied. Similarly, if the team consensus is that the player can reach the centre of the green some of the time even though the hole length falls outside the Transition Zone, then the Transition Zone concept should be applied.
4. ACCURACY PATTERN
The Accuracy Table gives the dimensions of the area into which a scratch or bogey player is expected to hit shots of various lengths 67 percent of the time. It is used to assist in evaluating the effect of obstacles around the target.
