    Distance Calculator

    Hey Boys, I followed a suggestion AV Twiss gave me in my reshafting GFF thread and did a search for distance calculators and found this one. It's pretty cool. It pretty much nailed me. Tell me what you think.

    Yeah looks pretty accurate, distances were a little short with the short irons, but very close with the long irons and driver.

    The distances were a little short on PW - 7i, and the driver was about 10 yards further than my average...but that might be because I play a 12*.

    Off on the short irons for sure. It's about 15 yards off on my 9i and pw, 10 on the 8i, then seems ok.

    Sadly, it's off by 35 yds on the driver and 15-20 on the 3 wood. That or I'm seriously leaking a ton of power

    Driver and long irons, little long on my mid irons and about 1/2 club long on my short irons. I bet it's pretty accurate if I swung exactly the same on all of my irons but I tend to swing 3/4 or a little less with mid and short irons.

    Just about spot on with me except for the driving distance, i am not sure how a 185 yard 5 iron equates to 282 yards with a driver? pretty cool and close with the irons for sure.

    Pretty accurate in my instance from top to bottom. Normals - Driver 306, 3-iron 240, PW 151 - all assuming a full swing. Like poe4soul I tend to throttle back a little with the shorter irons.

    I wonder if the fact that I'm currently using a set with traditional lofts has anything to do with the accuracy of the results? Strong or weak lofts might skew the results in some way, perhaps...

    Judging from those numbers FON I would say those lofts must be a lil weak.

    Little dissapointed in the numbers on my cleek. #8 metal was dead on.
    Don't get me started on my super cleek distances. Way off.

    Speak your mind because sitting on the fence like that will eventually screw you up.
