What does the "R" mean for a GHIN (golf index rating) of 9.2R?

You're most likely referring to the 'Course Rating' which in conjunction with the 'Slope Rating' of the course can be used to apply your GHIN to the course you're playing. \n\nSee an explanation here:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_rating

This is the set up for the R7 460,...\n\nIf you want to hit a draw, put the 14 gram weight in the heel and the two gram weight in the toe.  This allows the toe of the club to close quicker than the heel because there is less weight in the toe.  This promotes a draw.  \n\nIf you want to fade the ball, reverse the weighting in the club.  Put the 14 gram weight in the toe and the 2 gram weight in the heel.  This allows the heel to close faster than the toe thus promoting a fade.\n\nYou can also go to taylormadegolf.com and buy additional weights in other denominations.  You always have to keep 16 grams of weighting in the club for it to work correclty and remain compliant with USGA club specs. \n\nIf you want less draw, raise the weight in the toe, say to a 4 gram, and then put a 12 gram in the heel.  They actually sell a set of all weights for $150.00 at the PGA Super Store.   If you want the set up for the R7 425, shoot me an email and I will give it to you,... same idea but four weights instead of two,...

"U" stands for "Up", "R" stands for "Right".  Since Zeiss uses the same dials for windage and elevation.

A golf course has 18 holes. Each hole is given a parr rating of 3, 4 or 5. Average course is 72. A pro should do the course in parr (72) or less. \n\nWhen you start playing golf you have an handycap of 28. So you get 28 extra stokes over the 18 holes. \n\nIf you played against a pro and you went round in 100 and they went round in 72 in would be a draw. If you did it in 99 or less you would win.\n\nHaving a handycap allows different rated players to play against each other.\n\nTo lower your handycap, you play 3 rounds of golf at a course and take the average score.\n\n1st game you do it in 98 ( 2 stokes below your expected of 100)\n2nd game you do it in 96 ( 4 stokes below)\n3rd game you do it in 98 again.\n\nyour average would be 97, which is 3 stokes below your handycap of 100. \n\nCourse 72 plus handycap of 28 = 100. now deduct the 3 stokes from your averaged score over your last 3 holes. Now giving you a handycap of 25.\n\nYou keep playing and try to reduce your handycap to as low as poss. The lower your handycap score the better golfer you become.

Assuming it's a Par 3, you're looking at about 45,000.\n\n(This does not include practice shots at the range!)

"NFG research shows that only 22% of all golfers regularly\n\nscore better than 90 for 18 holes on a regulation length course. For\n\nfemales, the percentage drops to 7%, and for males it goes up to 25%.\n\nThe average 18-hole score on a full-size course is 97 for men and 114 for\n\nwomen. It's an even 100 for all golfers. Only 6% of the men and 1% of the\n\nwomen say they break 80 regularly."

A handicap is the number of strokes you get for a ground of golf.  A index is the number you use to look up on the slope chart of the course your playing so you know how many strokes you get or what your handicap will be for that round\n\nIndex - This was added over 10 years ago trying to even things out between gofl course.  A person cannot play to a 15 on every course, some are harder than others.  Your index may say you get 10 storkes on one course and 15 on another course.

Just away to grade the quality of used golf balls.  There is not a set standard for the grades.  The more A's is just away for one company to try to give the impression they have a better grade \nwww.mygolfballstore.com

I don't know all that much about it, but it appears that things got confused in the answers to the earlier question. The r2 statistic seems to have been mixed up with the correlation coefficient. The two are completely different. What r2 measures is the explained variance (the unexplained variance being the square of the residuals after the fit). A low r2 may come from an inadequacy of the model (e.g. fitting a straight line to a fundamentally nonlinear relationship), but it may also come purely from random noise. In a noisy series, it is quite possible to have a highly significant trend and a low r2.

It means you can try again on shot (usually a drive) that goes awry without adding a point to your score. Usually you can only take one (maybe two) Mulligan(s) per round. Be advised, this is only for use in a friendly game - not in a tournament or other serious game. You cannot take a Mulligan if you are submitting your scores for handicapping.

Links courses have a couple atributes.  First, they usually have few or no trees.  Secondly, they are usually placed in windy areas (ie near the sea or on a hill top).  Thirdly, a true links course will go in 2 directions, front 9 holes going away from the Club House and the back 9 holes come back toward the Club house.  That's why on a golf scorecard, the front 9 holes is your "out" score and the back 9 is your "in" score.\n\nAlso, links courses traditionally will have small deep sand bunkers, called "pot" bunkers, to make up for the lack of other hazards such as trees and water.

I would say 384 to 422 on the best selling golf balls, but on a gold ball no idea

Handicapping is a system that allows golfers of different abilities compete against one another.  Although there are a number of variable factors (i.e. course difficulty), your handicap is roughly proximate to the number of strokes over par you would shoot over 18 holes.\n\nFor instance, someone who averages 82 (on a par 72 course) would have a handicap of ten.  One who averages 72 would have a zero handicap (also known as a "scratch" golfer).  If one player has a ten handicap and another has a twenty handicap, the ten handicap gives the 20 handicap ten strokes (to account for their differences in their respective handicaps).\n\nIn match player, holes are ranked 1 -18 according to their difficulty.  If a 15 handicapper plays a 20 handicapper, the 15 gives the 20 one stroke on the five most difficult holes.  If the difference in handicap is greater than 18, the stronger player must concede two strokes.  For example, if a 6 hancicapper plays a 26 handicapper, the 6 concedes two strokes on the two most difficult holes, and one stroke on the remaining 16.\n\nNote that the handicap system is only used by amateurs and never by professionals as pros are assumed to have a zero/scratch handicap.

50%\n\nThe mean is 200 with a deviation of 50 either way.  That means that the chances are 50 percent that the rating will be higher than 200 and 50 percen the rating will be lower than 200 because 200 is the mean.

"Up" refers to getting the ball on the green (the putting surface) and "down" refers to getting the ball in the hole.\n\nIt is common for professional golfers to get "up and down" in two strokes.
