Hi fellow WGT golfers,
After using the Starter Ball (the freebie) for a long time since day 1 and now with the need for more distance, I started experimenting and mapped my NIKE Vapor Fly Pro Iron Set (L85+) with NIKE 20XI-X Balls (L71+) which has distance 5.0 & spin 4.0 and is probably the best ball I can get at my level in terms of cost-effectiveness.
The experimentation, however, put me in a total confusion. Well, I can tell the ball definitely goes further, but the problem is that even after mapping them for hours in practice mode, the results I'm getting in rated rounds are very disappointing. They simply vary too much! Sometimes it goes way over and sometimes on the contrary, it comes way too short whether I hit it with & without spin.
YES, this is all after taking into consideration of elevation & wind and I know my distance calculation is good since with the freebie, I can get it much closer to the hole once again whether I hit it with & without spin.
If I'm constantly over- or under-shooting, I'll be able to adjust accordingly, but it's practically lottery right now as it lands short and long whatever its highness wishes. What really drives me nuts is that I see the ball landing way beyond the pin in headwind and the opposite, coming way short in tailwind! (I don't mean to brag or anything, but I used to be a scratch player in real life until I stopped playing due to shoulder rotator cuff problem a couple of years ago and I know that simply doesn't make any sense!)
Anyway, I'd like to get some tips or advice on how to calculate or readjust the distance with more advanced balls. Thank you in advance.
Cheers and good shooting, everyone!
Simon
