Hi all. I've gone through all of the threads to back before the beginning of the year and did some searches, but couldn't find an answer to my issue. I spent half a day statting all my club distances to record an average carry and total distance for each club using the TGC2019 driving range. I then searched and played a few different par 3 courses and some club distances were off by 35+ yards and we're talking AW/PW/9i, so 35+ yards is a huge difference.
Anyone experience this? Is this a setting thing or possibly something with the course creation? I played multiple courses to try and eliminate course creation settings. BTW, I'm using a SkyTrak, if that matters at all. I haven't gotten around to using the ST driving range to contrast and compare, but I wouldn't think that would matter if I'm using the TGC2019 driving range and then play a few par 3 courses on TGC2019.
Quick example: 1st hole is 122 yds to pin, flat hole, no wind. Perfect 9 iron shot for me, as it carries 119. I swing, make solid contact and the shot carries 85 yards. I rewind and try again a few more times and all go about the same. So I go up two clubs and land it right on the green pin high, even though my 7i carries 139. Sometimes it only varies by 10 yards, but very frustrating to spend so much time figuring out and recording yardages for each club on the driving range and then to go out and play and have those references mean absolutely nothing. I will say that all of my short game shots were dead on to what I recorded on the chipping range, so I was very happy about that.
Thoughts?
