01
Use carry, not total distance
Carry distance tells you whether the ball clears a bunker, water, or the front edge. Total distance changes more with turf, slope, and weather.
02
Treat estimates as a starting point
A generated chart helps expose gaps, but your real numbers should come from repeated shots. Update the guide as you collect reliable carry distances.
03
Choose for the miss
The best club is not always the one that reaches the pin on a perfect strike. Consider your normal miss, wind, elevation, and the trouble around the target.
