Regarding the database you talked about: Carry, release.
Let's say a tournament would be staged including all players on tour. Each player gets to hit full iron shots from the same spot on the fairway while attempting to do nothing but carry all his balls to the same spot. There is no wind.
What results would you expect to see regarding length & direction?
If they used PW's?
If they used 8-irons?
If they used 6-irons?
If they used 4-irons?
Example of the type of answers I am looking for:
- The winner would hit 90% of the PW's within 3 feet in length and 6 feet wide
- The average player would hit 70% of his 8 irons within a 20 feet diameter circle
etc
Or you may have some other way you can indicate how accurate the tour players are.
