With apologies for picking your collectives brains again....
Launch monitors. I was in American Golf the other day killing a half hour between meetings by looking at the new ranges, and talked myself into trying out the Ping Crossover driving irons. They had a net and screens, and a launch monitor set up, and I hit maybe 20 balls with each of two set ups. My question is, how much can I trust the results? I recognise I should be comparing in my head to a wind free mid Summer day rather than imagining how I'm hitting it in winter with no run on the fairways, a stiff breeze and cold air conditions but...averaging 242 yards with a 3 iron seems excessive (for comparison, I currently carry a 5 wood that I'm lucky to get 220 out of)
