Ever sit at your course and watch where most regular golfers hit the fairway. Most don't hit the ball as far as they think. I have a bushnell neo x and it tells my how far I hit the ball. I also have learned not to tell golfers how far I or they really hit the ball.
Last week I played a course that had holes I couldn't reach in regulation. I am usually one of the longest hitters at my club. In fact, I hit four good straight shots to reach one par 4. I also took five good shots to hit a par 5 green. I was playing from the white T next to the front T. When I mentioned how long the hole played. One of the ladies in my foursome said to me that I now know how most women feel playing.
My home course has several par fours that most women take three or four good shots to reach the green.
Since PGA pros can drive the ball over 300 and hit 3 wood almost as far and hit a 7 iron 200. 325 pus 275 plus 200 equals 800.
When playing forward t's and still taking an extra good hybrid shot to reach the greens distance, then a chip on and two putts. Results in a double bogey on the card. and you hit good shots?
