100 yards out...what % do you hit the green?

[juanrjackson]

for me...probably only 40-50% of the time do I hit the green from the 75-120 yard range....I think it is the main reason I'm a high handicapper :{ I probably get up & down maybe 20% of the time.....so I'm giving up a lot of shots.

What about U?

[Yanks Fan]

I don't have any numbers but the last few times I remember hitting from 100 yards, I only remember missing maybe once or twice. But it is rare for me to hit from 75-120yds at my home course. Only did that once yesterday when I played.

OP, I don't wanna get off track but what are some nice courses up in that area? I'm getting tired of playing the same courses in my area.

[Fat Slice]

Good lie, 75%, so-so lie, 35%, bad lie, 15%.

At approx 100yds, I pretty good at hitting the green. Probably about 80% of the time. No bullshit. Where I have problems is inside 60yds. And even though I get on the green, my putting is nothing to be desired. I'm a high handicapper because most of my strokes are lost with my short game and putting.

100 Yards is a 3/4 Wedge for me. Just too far for my 54 which maxes out at 85-90 yards. If you have issues with it, then play a practise round and drop a few balls at that distance. It doesn't matter what club you use as long as you can control it. I would probably hit the green 75% of the time from 100 yards.

100 yards is a smooth & easy pitching wedge for me......the challenge is to hit it smooth & easy!!!

I've never kept stats on it. I'll keep track of this over my next few rounds and post the results.

I'll say this, though....my strategy on each of the six par 5's on my home course is to hit a safe drive in the middle.....bite off enough on my second to put me right on the 100 yard marker and then wedge it home and putt out. My scoring average on these par 5's is so much better vs. par than on the other holes.

100 yards is birdie hunting season. Its not a matter of hitting the green but a matter of getting it within 10' that I strive for. I would suggest that if you aren't hitting the green from 100 yards that you should never shot for a flag (if you are) but shot to the center of the green. A lot of high Handicapers I play with have the problem of shotting for a pin thats tucked or just on the green and it kills them.

[golf rules]

I probably hit the green almost (85-90%) every time but a lot of the time they aren't as close as I would like. I almost consider anything over 20 feet away as a missed green.

[Laxplayer201092]

probobly 90% or so..

the only exception being yesterday, biiiig doleg left, hit a nice easy fade driver, right into a divot. tryed to play it back of stance witht he lobber, and right over the green. DAMN! rough up and down from back there.

But its not as hard for me, as my 54 goes about 115. so 120 is pretty easy yardage for me.

[Chilidipper]

This is the worst part of my game. I'd say 40% at the very most, probably like 25% to be honest

100yds out is my favorite distance. I've been working on this shot all summer and now at the point where I get on the green 70%-80% of the time. It's usually a PW or my 56* depending on the conditions. It's my putting that keeps my index high.

[Dub]

Today....from 95-120 (my PW) I was 70%. Two of these misses still had me putting from the fringe, though. My misses were (1 each)-left, right and way long.

[GolferDot]

100 yards is the distance I dread, can't hit my 56* S/W far enough and hit my gap wedge too far, I would rather be 115 yards out for a full gap wedge into the green. Don't have the subtle control required yet but will get there. I am usually disappointed if I am more then 15 feet away from these distances.

[DaveLeeNC]

According to my data, from 2004 to the present (from 90-110 yards) it is 81%. Index in that timeframe varied from 4.2 to 7.0.

I hate being 75-100 out. I am much more accurate with my pw, 9i, 8i so I would much rather be 140-160 out. Maybe thats something I need to work on ;) Got the new wedges so hey thats not a bad idea

hmm dont know exact but im usin a 3/4 sand wedge into it so i dont miss to often and wen i do its just off front at 100 yds its a wierd sw 110 is full sw and all else you mentioned are easy pw

[Hoselrockets]

what ever it is it's not high enough....

[Titleist Man]

for me its completely feel dont even think about it
