There is a stat for the par bounce back (boggy or worse and on the next hole par or better).
I would like to see the opposite. Make a birdie and on the next hole making boggy or worse. What I call PBFU.

P post
B birdie
F f**k
U up

I'm so with you on that one. It seems to happen much more than bogeying a hole and coming back with a birdie. Those birdies always seem to get erased the very next shot.

One of my fondest golf memories was of an eagle on a 430 yard par 4. Unfortunately it was wiped out by a triple on the following hole.

This was added today as two stats (second for golfers):
Wasted Birdie
Wasted Par

Sorry, guys went with a little more family friendly name...

Haha, thanks for the fast implementation of this stat.
I'm at 39.3% 'wasted birdies'.
Considering I bogey or worse 49% of my holes, then I guess on average I do slightly better on holes after birdies. But I also know that I have a tendency to throw up double or worse..

Those are interesting additions to the stats. For me:
64.3% Wasted Birdies
37.8% Wasted Pars

I didn't see these stats available before either (my results):
13.2% Birdie Putts Made
41.3% Par Putts Made

Thanks!

I call that a Regit which is Tiger spelled backwards because of his ability to come back from a bogey with a birdie.
