    Thanks. Can you tell me how that translates in club selection?

    Usually 2 or 3 yards.

    barely a noticeable difference, you can probably adjust the spin of the ball to counter this type of rough.  Also I dont think you find it except in CTTH challeges.  Frankly i think the cupped tee covers roughly 2-5% of the ball.

    Not the case in my experience. I measured over 20% swing power with the suggested club and still came up 20 yards short.
