Ok, but objectively...
JB you say launch monitor - fine, we have those at Golf Town. What do you look for in those? Are there goldilock numbers that people aim for?

Subjectively...
I know my clubs are meant to get the ball in the air as hard and as fast as possible - and they do so beautifully! When I clip a nice clean 7-iron shot I've carried 160-170 and almost jumped for joy haha.
In a hypothetic world where a ball would travel the same amount of distance horizontally no matter how high (or low) the ball goes, what is ideal?

Each person will want numbers based on their own swing. While some believe there are hard and fast rules on launch conditions, the truth is it will depend a lot on swing speed, swing type, and other factors.
