  Why is it in practice rounds drives go further, more putts fall in etc  Shouldn't it b consistent with competitive golf thus the reason for practice??

  Here's the difference.   The course difficulty ratings go down on all courses when in practice mode.. Just noticed that, so YES it is easier in practice mode lol

  No.  If the practice mode has the same hole locations, tees, green speed, and wind as the ranked round the difficulty rating is the same.
