The distance for this sim generally is quite accurate if you flight the ball correctly, the result is most people believe it measures short as they are so used to jumped up figures. Low shots go far, hook and slice are straitened.
They are ALL to be taken with a pinch of salt, you can make...
It is only a training aid and you should take the figures with a pinch of salt, especially if you hit one thin (It will go a long way)
When they endorse these sims it is like TM saying gain 15 yards, it sells product.
The sim you are talking about, i can hit my 4 iron 40 yards further than...
I find it interesting that Crossfield has become a guru, he knows how to use social media and make a nice video, does not mean that everything he says is spot on. I like his presentation but being good at social media does not make you the top coach out there, another guy did a quest for 350...

Everyone KNOWs its about where the ball finishes
BUT
Golf is easier if you are hitting less club and wanting to get a handle on what is average is what this thread is about..
p.s
Average for men, knock 5% of the LPGA distances and you will be damn close.
My post with guy above crossed...
Hitting 30 yards shot of what you hit now would make good scoring basically impossible, you need SOME power and then learn to hit it straight, if (And obviously this is not an option) you were told give up 30 yards and you CAN hit every fairway your scoring would never be great, you would never...
