Scrambling Up-and-Down Percent
Pool actual par-or-better recovery counts conditional on missed greens; denominator excludes hits, no invented up/down difficulty or causality.
Description
Scrambling percentage is conditional on missed greens.
Scrambling percentage is conditional on missed greens. Par-or-better recoveries are successes under this declared convention.1
The returned values include Pooled observed scrambling percent. The How section below explains the calculation, input rules and interpretation.
When to use Scrambling Up-and-Down Percent
Use Scrambling Up-and-Down Percent when you need to evaluate the supplied records under the calculation and evidence rules below. No recovery difficulty or causal skill inference is supplied.
Prepare the observed race, match or training records and the stated units. Supply independently verified rule editions, calibration tables and targets where requested.
How to use Scrambling Up-and-Down Percent and understand its results
- Prepare the observed race, match or training records and the stated units. Supply independently verified rule editions, calibration tables and targets where requested.
- Enter observedMissedGreenOpportunities, observedParOrBetterRecoveries using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read pooledObservedScramblingPercent. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| observedMissedGreenOpportunities | Observed missed green opportunities | list of number | Required |
| observedParOrBetterRecoveries | Observed par or better recoveries | list of number | Required |
Enter aligned nonempty integer opportunities 0–1000 and recoveries 0–opportunities with positive pooled opportunities. Return pooled percentage.
scrambling%=100sum(recoveries)/sum(missedGreenOpportunities) Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| pooledObservedScramblingPercent | Pooled observed scrambling percent | number |

}Limitations and assumptions
No recovery difficulty or causal skill inference is supplied.
Numeric inputs, where present, must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Numeric lists are limited to 10,000 entries; string lists to 128 strings of at most 128 characters each. The rules above may impose smaller limits. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use Strokes Gained Off-the-Tee Calculator: Tee-shot strokes gained compares benchmark expected strokes before and after actual shot/penalty costs. The benchmark is caller supplied. For a complementary task, use Putts Per Round Average Calculator: Putts per hole can normalize partial and full rounds consistently. It differs from averaging unequal round totals.
