How does Procaddie's shot sequence optimization work?
Hey everyone! As one of the AI developers behind Procaddie, I wanted to share some insights into our core technology.
We've built a sophisticated system that calculates optimal shot sequences for each hole based on:
- Player's skill level and typical distances
- Current course conditions (wind, pin position, etc.)
- Risk/reward analysis for different approaches
- Historical data from professional tour strategies
Our AI caddies use this optimization output to provide contextual advice. For example, instead of just saying "hit driver," the system might recommend a 3-wood to position you perfectly for your favorite wedge distance on the approach.
The fascinating part is how we combine this mathematical optimization with the authentic personality and wisdom of real tour caddies. Steve Williams might deliver the same strategic recommendation but with his characteristic confidence and directness.
Would love to hear thoughts from golfers here - what factors do you currently consider when planning your shots? Are there situations where you feel you need better strategic guidance?
Happy to answer any technical questions about how we're approaching AI in golf! 🏌️♂️
