Some of these huge distances could very well be attributed to numbers coming from launch monitors which are "fluffed" themselves. Yes? All the numbers I posted (and I never will again haha) are on course, including roll. I really don't know how you could measure on course carry distances with GPS. Shorter irons and wedges into the green, yes you can see the divot, but not driver or anything long off the tee.
I know if my numbers were my carry distances from Golf Town I would be having quite a few eyes rolled at me. Apparently I hit my driver 305 carry, a 3h 265 carry, and my 8 iron 195 carry. These numbers are nowhere close, like not even ballpark, and others on this forum may not know this discrepancy in on course compared to some LM's? Just a theory.
Drive for Show Putt for Dough. I hit the ball pretty long and can score low but it's all based on my short game as well as anyone else. If you think someone isn't posting their real distances it shouldn't bother you really cuz what advantage did they get? a bigger ego maybe, oh well thats them not you. You play your game let them play theirs and the scores will figure itself out. There are plenty of short knockers that score really well because they are good at chipping and putting.
Amen to that!
Or to put it another way, if most people were as concerned about their putting and short game as they are about how far they hit their driver, they'd probably knock 10 strokes off their average round.
As I've said before, I'm amazed at how many people I encounter who all have the latest driver in their bag, yet they seem to treat putting and chipping as some sort of formality that needs to be dispensed with as quickly as possible.
i used to be that guy.... now i work on my short game more than my driver and irons combined.
And I'll bet that your game is better because of it.
Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of people who just play once in a while and they really don't care about scoring and just want to go out and have some fun, just as there are plenty of other people who really do care and are trying real hard at all aspects of the game but just haven't gotten there yet and I'm not talking about those guys.
The people I'm talking about are the ones who almost always spend an entire driving range session hitting nothing but drivers but then get out on the course and make a mess out of everything else. But when they do, they complain that they're not getting better or they "wish they could" do this or that better and I want to just ask them, "Do you ever PRACTICE this or that so that you might GET better at it?" Many of these folks actually have decent swings and I know that they could do a lot better than they are but they've gotten so wrapped up in the "power thing" that they don't seem to see anything else.
it really has i finally broke 80 this year a couple times after trying for several years and im keeping my handicap to a single digit! My new golftec instructor just said it was a nice change to have someone come in and want to work on something other than gaining more distance. i wanted to chip and putt

I'm willing to bet you go straight there too, meaning your dispersion is perfectly accurate!
