  Playing Ready go from pro tees yesterday,St Andy's  hole #9 says its 282 yards to pin, my drive BOUNCED on 282 yards and was amazed to see this 10 yards past the pin.  Why is the distance so wrong when its in a totally straight line as the crow flies as well?

  Hi Chris,

  I raised a similar question as a bug a while back. The answer is that the yardage measurement is tee to the centre of the green, not tee to pin.
