Years played, Handicap, Swing speed, and Yardages.
 
Thought this might be an interesting idea to see folks break down of their SS vs Handicap and yardage for each club in the bag. My session on the range spurred this idea I see guys out there really just thrashing at balls, hitting them pretty well, with no real regard for exactly where they're aiming or how long they're hitting each club and one of the biggest part of the games is really knowing how far each club goes.

Years played - 10, years played seriously 4.
HC 8.9
Driver SS 112 Driver 270 3 wood 230 19* 210 4i 195 5i 185 6i 175 7i 165 8i 150 9i 140 Pitching 110-130 52* 90 - 100 56* 70 - 80 60* 50-60.

My most awkward gaps that I run into on the course would be the split between the Hybrid and 4i and I sometimes have a tough time choosing the right wedge to play depending on yardage and type of shot. I really haven't dialed them in as far as flops, pitches, or bump and runs are concerned.

Check out the Score Wedge form testing or the TaylorMade ATV wedges. A lot of good things have been said about both!!

What on earth does this have to do with this thread?

Weird. You smash your driver way past me & your 3 wood but as far as irons i'm basically identical.

For me-

Years Playing- We'll say 5, before that I was to young to take it very serious.
HCP: Not sure, inputting some scores into and online calculator gives me a 15.
SS:No Idea

Driver: I struggle hitting it straight so will give a range 200-250 (bad drive-good drive)
3 Wood: 220
Hybrid:200
4-Iron: Hardly hit it. I'd imagine if I could hit one well it'd go about 185
5-Iron: 175
6-Iron:165
7:155-60
8:145-50
9:135-140
P:125-30
G:115-120
SW:110
58*:100

PetraCromlich 07-01-2012 02:05 AM

You've been playing for not even a year and your hitting your driver 310. I must be doing it wrong . Goodness gracious.

Very nice. I wish I had your dancing skills.....and your knockdown shots.

I'm gonna have to do some more research... I've been playing for almost 20 years, but I have no idea how long I've really been playing...

Seems like we do one of these ever couple of months, and it usually leads to some...let's say embellishment.
