The exception being a range ball that is specifically a limited flight ball.

Before I knew that I gauged my distances at the range and then would think I was hitting the ball pretty well when I played. Haha.

Were they labeled "limited flight"? If they weren't, then range balls should fly pretty much as far as a regular ball. Certainly within a few yards.

Don't remember, tbh. I just remember distances being off.

This is one of the concerns that pros have when getting fitted, so I think they use the balls they normally play with to get fitted and measured for their distances. I was considering using something like game golf instead of getting a trakman combine result, but now that I consider all the different conditions it seems like combine will give you the most accurate numbers you can use for a good baseline.

Don't think it a concern for them, more like the ability to use their exact balls on the range is a luxury afforded them.
