On any given hole, would those errors be expected of an expert?
Though "expected" may be a bit vague and undefined (as is "expert"), a little guidance would avoid a lot of statistical rigamarole. In looking at results to see if expectations were warranted, surely for any hole that produces the same result at least 50% of the time, that should be an expected score. For holes that don't, the median---at least half the scores are that, or better---would seem reasonable.
With that, there would be few errors, back kicks, OBs, etc. involved; the ones that are, would be offset by unexpectedly heroic recovery shots.
