I've been able to speak with the Data Science team who have let me know the following.Importance to scoring is calculated by measuring what areas of your game are most closely linked with changes in your scoring. Therefore it is possible for your OTT Other to have high importance to scoring if strong play in OTT Other is predictive of low scoring and vice versa.
However, to have a category as No. 1 in terms of Importance is very rare when you have as little shots in that category as you do. With that in mind, they're going to take a look at the calculations as a whole and review.
I hope that helps but any questions do let me know!
Sorry to come back to this but I’m really struggling with understanding the what to work on suggestions. Once again, it’s related to off the tee with driver. Unfortunately, I’m not good and it’s the worst part of my game:

I compare myself to a plus handicap and, in the other three categories, I’m pretty close or above the benchmark. But, off the tee, I’m way behind (76 vs 94). So, it seems quite logical that if I were to improve there, I could see a pretty big jump forward in my game and overall rating. But, the off the tee (driver) is usually very low on my list of things to work on with 4% importance (and, the OTT:other which is a rare shot still has the highest importance percentage which makes no sense given how rarely I hit less than driver). To be fair, it is listed as a high opportunity which I guess is pointing toward this being something to work on but I just can’t understand why it’s not #1 or very near the top. I’m sure there is some reason behind this but I just find it frustratingly strange that I’m not being encouraged to work on this when I know from doing some shot by shot analysis that there is a very high correlation between my bad holes and tee shots that end up in recovery spots which happens way too often.
I know I can practice what I want and the app only needs to be a suggestion but I really love this data and insights that are coming which makes this thing even more frustrating for me.
