    Huge delta between total and carry distances

    When using "Practice" mode and only using the driving range (i.e., no green), I get really weird total and carry distances. For instance, with my 7i, I will get 160 carry distances and 175 total distances. Based on my ball flight and apex (~28-30 yds), a 15 yd rollout doesn't make any sense. I do have a natural draw on the shot, but 15 yds seems really excessive.

    To the contrary, if I'm using "Game Improvement," and the target circles are displayed, my 7i carries to approximately 165-170 and ends around 170-175. I never see more than 10 yd rollout at the maximum.

    Does anyone else have this experience? On "Practice" mode, I usually just take my total yardage and subtract about 5-7 yards for a rough estimate of where I think my ball will end up. Any thoughts? (I haven't manipulated altitude or temp at all.)

    Set course condition to soft and you will get may be 5 yards of roll out at most. You must be on Hard course condition.

      estimating rollout is impossible. Just go off carry numbers, that the important thing IRL anyway. Rollout is always going to depend on daily conditions.

        Couldn’t agree more. Soft, hard conditions. Way to high rough or burnt fairways always will determine IRL roll out.
