    I Think What you Mean is "GIR" Which is "Greens In Regulation"..

    Definition: A statistical category on the pro tours and a popular method for amateurs and recreational players to rate their rounds.

    To achieve a green in regulation, your ball must be on the putting surface in the expected number of strokes in relation to par. The par for a hole always includes two putts, so to achieve a GIR on a par-3, you must reach the green with your first shot (on the green in one, two putts for par). On a par-4, you must reach in two shots (on the green in two, two putts for par). On a par-5, you must reach in three shots.

    To claim a GIR, your ball must be on the putting surface. Being 1-inch off the green, in the fringe, but still able to putt the ball does not count. The ball must be on the putting surface.

    Thanks! that's exactly what I was refering to. I guess that's something I need to start tracking.
