Is it an old course. Or an old farm, orchard that was made into a golf course say 30-50 years ago? Or a course that has limited amenities?

In or around Pasadena, CA they are all old courses. ;-)

Brookside course 2, hole 6.

I have never seen a course with big variances. Any time I am near a plaque it is within yard or so of gps.

There are two courses there.

The one I measured opened in 1985; the other opened in 1962.  Other than that, I really don't know much about the history of the place.

It's a dump and they don't maintain it well at all but for $16 a round, you get what you pay for.

In after thought, my 60 yard measurement with the laser might have been off. I could have been measuring 20 to 40 yards closer than it really was. I might have been measuring the little hill in front of the green rather than the flag.

      That is a bit hyperbolic, I think. Most despicable is a bit much.  Again, a bit over the top here.  Most athletes are probably closer to being normal human beings than degenerates and avaricious scum.  Just sounds like you want to generalize all athletes because it is easy to do so. Hey, generalizing a subset of a population is entirely a human thing to do.

      This is so awesome; my two biggest lifetime hero and the biggest superstars of the past 35 years in golf……both turned out to be the two of the most despicable human beings in professional sports… Between this and everyone whoring themselves out for Saudi Arabia… Used to love golf because I thought they were smarter, better people than the other sports. Turns out a huge percentage of them are total degenerates and avaricious scum like every other sport!

      This isn't going to show you lateral dispersion at all. It's basically just a radar (for speed) launch monitor. It doesn't measure spin or anything like that. Not even launch direction.
