发帖数: 51 | 1 Some time ago, ET posted his carry and roll distance, which got me really
interested. As a typical recreational player, I never really understand how
far my ball can carry and roll. The only thing I know, well roughly, is the
total distance I got.
ET said he got only a couple of yards from his iron shot, which really
puzzeled me at the beginning, coz I know I got a lot from roll. The last
game, I finally got a chance to ask my wife to watch and estimate the roll
for me for the green. I was in fr | ET
发帖数: 10701 | 2 first time I played with a local treaching professional, he tried to caddie
for me on course. He provided the distance as accurate as within 2 yards
error margin. I was still wondering, why I need that, 10 yards error margin
works for me.
now I am tending to appreciate it more and more, that's why i had the
previous post: my game. I emphasis the strategy more than anything else now.
so, back to your question, watching Tiger's ball flight, even for driver, he
doesn't want to ball roll a lot. He

发帖数: 904 | 3 it's all about whether you strike the ball cleanly. when strike cleanly,
especially with short irons, the ball has back spins on it, so it won't roll
much at all. when i am striking my pitching wedge cleanly, the ball
actually rolls backwards after hitting the green. i am sure you see that all
the time on tv.
as a beginner, don't worry about roll/carry. first hit the ball at the
direction you want to hit, as long as you know the total distance your each
of your clubs. once you develop consistent

发帖数: 51 | 4 ET and Teeski,
Thank you both for the help! I think Teeski is right. I need to focus on the
basics, getting my swing right first. Worrying about carry and roll is
beyond my current level.
As for keeping the head steady, yes, I have been trying. When I swing hard,
i can see that my head tend to drop a bit and I have to compensate it by
pulling the club further left, from the video I shot.
The problem if I am concerned too much about steady head position, I always
lose a lot of distance.

发帖数: 51 | 5 The reason that I shoot long irons instead of hybrids or fairway woods is
that I always felt long irons are easier, contrary to most people think. I
guess I have a phobia of hitting the ground, therefore my hybrid tend to hit
thin or top off, :-( | A*f

发帖数: 51 | 7 Not for me. I almost lost confidence in my hybrid play. When I take out my
hybrid on course, I always feel shaky. That is why I only use long irons now
. Need to fix it. |
