Default Distance gap help
I often have trouble figuring what club to hit. I'm sure I'm not the only one. There are several clubs I'm pretty dead on with. I'm trying to figure how much distance to add or take away per club. I hit my 4i 180, 7i 150, and aw 110. What would u say I should expect distance gaps to be on other clubs. I only listed the above clubs b/c I'm very sure of those distances. Btw, I'm swinging burner 2.0's if that makes a difference. Thanks.

It sounds like than within your set you are getting between 13-15 yard gaps between your clubs with the smaller gap between the shorter irons. Its not perfect but should give you a good idea what you hit each club. Personally I prefer to have my gaps get narrower in my wedges (in the 10-13 yard range), and then on the upper end have the gaps get a little wider.

Thanks for the help. That makes a lot of sense to get less gap the lower you go. My aw is my money club from 110. Below that I have a 56' and a 60'. Right now when I'm less than 100 yards I tend to loose confidence bc I don't know which club I hit how far. Guess range time might help with that.

that sounds pretty similar to what I hit my clubs. I usually have about a 10 yard gap in between each club on a regular swing but I can usually go up or down 10 yards depending how hard I swing. For example I hit my average 7 iron around 150 but I have hit it 160ish right to the middle of a green and I've hit it 140ish right onto a green as well with calm conditions and no altitude changes

I'm around 10 yard gaps through the irons and 15 yards in the hybrids.

Very cool chart. One question, in the notes it references the pull cart u are using. Do different carts account for distance? If so, I'm looking to upgrade. Haha.

Harvey Penick says pick the shorter club and hit it hard.

Nice chart HG....

I look for 10 yards myself with everything until the 3 wood...it's a bit more gap from the hybrid, but acceptable at that point. All my irons are about 10 yards gap from 4 iron to the AW.

I would say you need to find a range that has yardage markers. Ideally, you'll be able to fit roughly 10 balls per club, with your regular swing and then average out the distances.

This is ideal of course. I was able to do this last year and started seeing about 5-7 shots drop on average per round, just by being more sure of my distances.

I would say betwen 10-12 yards should be good. But you won't know untill you zone in on your yardages. Any gap larger than 15 yards should be assesed. I had a gap issue with my irons when I first got them. I had to replace my wedges to fit the gap from my GW and PW.
