What's Inside

Three pillars, every week

Not hot takes. Not recycled ESPN clips. Original analysis built from the numbers.

Both Tiers

Tournament Intelligence

Course breakdown, field strength analysis, key stats to watch, and which players' games fit the week. Weekend recap with strokes gained leaders and the numbers behind the result. Deep dives and stat of the week included.

Both Tiers
🎯

Practice Lab

One drill, one stat, one focus area. Structured practice based on strokes gained data — calibrated to your handicap range (0-10, 10-20, 20+). 15-minute and 45-minute sessions. Plus gear and tech spotlights when warranted.

Pro Tier
📈

Lab Picks

Data-backed betting picks for every tournament. Course-fit model scores, best odds across 6+ sportsbooks, outright winners, top 10/20 finishes, and matchup plays. Picks from a model, not a gut feeling.

"I've subscribed to every golf newsletter out there. Lab Notes is the only one where I actually read the whole thing every week. The practice drills alone are worth it."

Ryan C. · 12 handicap, Charlotte NC

"The Lab Picks paid for my entire annual subscription in the first month. The course-fit model is legit — it surfaces value the sharps are already on."

Jake P. · Pro tier, Scottsdale AZ

"Finally, golf analysis that treats the audience like adults. No clickbait, no filler. Just the numbers and what they mean. This is what The Ringer should be doing for golf."

Michelle T. · 8 handicap, Austin TX

FAQ

Common questions

Every Tuesday you get the Stat of the Week, a quick tournament recap, a Player to Watch for the upcoming event, and links to our latest content. It's a complete read on its own — not a teaser.
Free gives you the highlights. Lab Notes ($4.99/mo) adds the full tournament preview with course-fit model scores, 3 detailed players to watch with SG profiles, practice drills by handicap range, and the weekend deep-dive recap. Lab Notes Pro ($9.99/mo) adds everything above plus a Wednesday betting email with picks, odds comparison across 6+ sportsbooks, and a season tracker.
Lab Notes lands every Tuesday morning. If you're on the Pro tier, Lab Picks arrives on Wednesday — giving you time to place bets before the tournament starts Thursday.
We use strokes gained models, PGA Tour ShotLink data, and our own proprietary course-fit scoring system. All picks include the specific data points behind each recommendation.
Not for the free tier — just your email. Paid tiers are handled through Stripe and require a card. You can start free and upgrade whenever you're ready.
Lab Picks is for entertainment and informational purposes. We provide data-backed analysis and identify where we see value in the odds. All betting decisions are yours. Please gamble responsibly.
Yes. Upgrade from free to paid or switch between tiers anytime. Downgrade or cancel with one click — you keep access through the end of your billing period. No contracts, no fees.
Every drill includes modifications for three ranges: 0-10, 10-20, and 20+. The strokes gained data behind each drill is calibrated to your level — what matters for a 5 handicap is different than what matters for a 20.
