    Hi all,

    I have just changed to using the L71 Nike ball and my yardages have all changed markedly, I was using the Callie (z) and had them spot on..

    has anyone out there got any reliable info on yardage with and without bs, specifically for the L71 Nike..

    I've been up and down 10,11 and 12 at BPB a 100 times and am not getting anywhere and I am going through ball after ball..I have just hit Legend and am not gonna get much further unless I get these yardages dialled in..

    Any folks kind enough to lend a word of advice?

    peace

    I don't use those Nikes but maybe I can help a bit nonetheless. This will be a rough guide but maybe it's something to work with. You have to watch your shots in game play and note what distance shots are going with full spin or no spin and adjust chart accordingly. Also worth noting, half spin will usually put you at a distance right between full spin and no spin. I'm just guessing here a bit based on my experience with the irons and the nikes I've played with, so it can't be perfect but hope it gives you something to work with. The key is to stick with on type of ball and learn how the irons respond to it, just takes some time and you'll get a good feeling what they will do. I would also say take note of how far irons go with wind, just a small bit of tailwind can really make a difference.

    first number will be no spin, second full spin

     

    110 P wedge 112, 105

    125 iron 127, 120

    140 iron 142, 135

    155 iron 160, 150 maybe less

    170 iron 175, 165 maybe bit less

    185 iron 190,180 or just bit less

    200 iron 207, 197-195

    215 iron 225 ?, 210 or so

    Look at the thread in Equipement & Avatars under the heading 'to go with the G20s or not ? That is the question'..it has exactly what your asking for...Hope it helps....Andy

    Thanks Golfspieler,

    These figures are about 2 yds further than I was getting on the practice shots at BPB, factor in a bit of wind and that 2 yds becomes 5-10 difference, no wonder i was always short, was using a high distance ball but being short was irritating me..

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    Hey Andy,

    Those figures must be with a ball I haven't come across yet coz I get nowhere near them even with a ding, Golfspielers numbers worked out better in the round I just played at CCC..

    Still cant putt though lol, 64 with 2 x 3 putts from under 5yds..

    Thanks anyway,

    Andrew
