It's amazing to me to watch Bollox play on YouTube where every shot goes to 2-3yds. You don't do that without both dinging a lot AND knowing your yardages and meter's behavior on 96% swings, etc. I commend him, but he shows me it's possible.
That's why the inconsistency of some of my "similar" shots is shocking me.
I was dialing them in all afternoon yesterday, and I found some interesting things....
- I hit 5-7 shots, tossed the high and low, and averaged the rest. There are obviously some discrepancies with a random super shot, or one seemingly hit fat, but most fall in a fairly narrow channel.
- I did this with all clubs using both no spin and full backspin.
- But, when I transfer to the course, my elevation and wind adjustments may be a little off, but ALL my shots started flying a bit farther than the notes/chart I had written down. Uphill, downhill, wind, etc, didn't seem to matter. My shot simply flew farther than I was expecting.
Can anyone help fix that surprise? Has anyone done similar things and experienced a similar situation?
