I have used my Swing Caddie SC300i for the first time at the range. I bought it because my eyesight cannot see the ball so well past 160 metres. It does the main thing I need – tell me how far I hit 5 iron and longer clubs. I hope it will eventually help me with forcing/hitting from the top – because it gives me quantified feedback that confirms that the harder I try, the shorted I hit. It pretty much confirms what I already know – my irons are OK and my driver is a problem. As a slightly built 67 year old male, I am happy to hit a 5 iron 160 metres (total, at sea level). I have Ping G5 with regular graphite shafts. I am not delofting - they go plenty high enough. But my best driver only goes 220 metres. The driver swing speed reading is around 92/93 mph – which looks about right for 220m. I found a conversion chart which suggests that if I hit a 5 iron 160 metres, then my driver swing speed should be around 100 mph. Question number 1: If I can consistently hit my 5 iron 160 metres – how far should I hit my driver? Question number 2: Assuming the answer to Q1 is more than 220 metres - what I am doing wrong with my driver? (I know that is a big ask) Question 3: I believe the SC300i can measure club head speed without a ball but I get no result without a ball. Any suggestions? Thanks -
