    15-20 add 5

    25-30 add 1 yard or nothing

    30-40 add 10 yards

    40-50 add 20+ yards

    30 yards on 30-40 is way to much.

    take your ball and go to a hole. practice round lets say kiawah 1.

    hit the ball into the rough near the green and start practicing shots. flops or pitches or both. whatever you like.

    around the green on short distances it's very predictable.

    bunkers even more so.  there is definite math to bunker shots and it's linear. 

     

    fairway rough. dont hit it there and you don't need to worry about it.

    but there are some general guidelines that will enable you to make pars most times. Fairway rough tho is going to cut down on your birdie chances.

    and never hit it into a fairway bunker unless it's within 80 yards of the green. that's just an avoid at all cost rule. the penalty to distance is simply too high to risk it.

    I believe WGT has a "die hard scale", otherwise, people would not be shooting in the low 50's.

    Here’s a little Rough Divisors chart I use from different lies. Fun with it is that you can use any in-between factor numbers for more precision based on the distance you have to reach. Pretty simple to use : simply take the distance  to reach and divide it by the related factor will giving you the total distance of the shot. Adjust for wind & elevation.

    EX : 100y from 30-40% rough is 100 / .975 = 102.5y

    ROUGH

    <100y

    100-125y

    125-150y

    150-200y

    10-15%

    .995

    .993

    .990

    .988

    20-25%

    .990

    .988

    .985

    .975

    25-30%

    .990

    .985

    .975

    .925

    30-40%

    .975

    .950

    .925

    .875

    40-50%

    .925

    .900

    .875

    .825

    50-60%

    .875

    .850

    .825

    .775
