Based on my Game Golf stats, I am almost dead on bawls accurate with the Red.

Jim, 

Does the GG app calculate the carry distance?

I'd make this a poll, but I think the answers might be confusing, because maybe you don't have all of these clubs, or you're longer with your hybrid but shorter with your wedges… or whatever. But

A few are a little high and a few a little low, but it's roughly correct.

I've always had pretty straight 10 yard differences between clubs and have wondered why all the pros, even the ones that are short hitters and only hit it a bit farther than I do, have such bigger gaps at the top of the bag.  I average in the 260s carry with my driver in, so pretty much right in between red and black, but my long clubs, say hybrid-5i, are only a bit longer than the red numbers.  Then my shorter clubs, 7i-PW, are pretty much exactly right in the black column.  Then the SW and LW numbers are too high, with the red number for LW too high even in the red column. 

Not sure why I have such a flatter distance vs club curve than everyone else...

Negative. You just tag wherever the ball ends up and that's your distance.

Ah, so you're probably like me, in-between the Purple and the Red.  The numbers in the table are for carry distance.

Yes, trending toward Purple as the birthdays and back pain keep adding up. ;-)

I'm somewhere between orange and white. My driver is in the orange column, but everything else is in the white. I've been struggling with my distance off the tee due to degenerative disks #6 and #7. I'm going to have a minimally invasive procedure soon. Hopefully, when I recover (and if it works) I'll be back to averaging 215 to 220 on my drives.

Almost said between red and black until I realized I was thinking total distance. I carried my driver 230-250 last time I was out and my 8 iron about 135. I'd say purple is close to slightly short for me. This will be a nice little chart for me to set goals with when I start adding distance.

My driver carry averages about 235. The rest of the clubs line up with the interpolation of the last two columns, except for the sand and lob wedges, which I hit shorter. I thing I play those maybe up towards my left foot more than most.

On good strikes, I'm in the red and yeah, pretty much across all the irons.

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
