Driving distances and handicap- be honest now!

[virtuocity]

Following on from the 'duffs' thread, I would be grateful to record everyone's handicap and average driving distance.

To clarify, I want average driving distances without influence of wind, hills etc. Doesn't have to be exact, but I would ask that the arbitrary 20% isn't added on!

Ok- here goes!

28 / 210 yards

6 / 260 yards

I've just had a look on Google Earth and (very approximately) measured the distances from Saturday morning. They were all between 210 yards and 240 yards and about 3 of them were straight.

I'm not sure so Google earth sounds good, is it a special app to get distances?

5 and 250-260!

It's amazing how often 300yards is shorter than 250!

When you say 'average', can we assume you mean average when struck well, or do you want to include the bad shots in the average as well?

Hit 220 meters when fitting for my R11s driver using stock range balls recorded on Trackman. Haven't had an opportunity to test it out on the course yet as exam revision takes precedence over Golf at the moment.

So.
15.9 HCP/ 220 meters

Apologies.

Average= good average hit. No duffs.

Hi Darth,

It's a standard feature. There's a button that looks like a ruler on the top taskbar that I've circled red in the image below. You just click on where the tee was on that day and then click on the point where your ball ended up.

Cheers

I'm not sure if you've grasped the meaning of AVERAGE hehe :clap:

It's really NOT a difficult sum from those figures :ears:

It's called wiggle room we've got a meet in 6 weeks and I'd hate to disappoint anyone!
