Posting that you average 261 is an odd way to prove you average 275. I know they’re range balls, but the ball speed off the face isn’t what makes them shorter than regular balls. It’s about the only thing range balls are comparable to with tour balls because the biggest difference is the hard arse cover which doesn’t come into play when compressed off a driver. Trackman has settings to adjust for range balls and wind even so that fitters can still boost numbers during demo days.

But the point remains… 112 mph + 3000 rpm doesn’t come out to 275.

It isn’t worth discussing anything golf with you if you don’t think a real ball goes minimum 10-15 yards further than a range ball

This is one of my lower spinning drives. So obviously it’s much further. But it gives you an idea of my dynamic loft I create and smash factor. When my numbers spin more it obviously decreases my distance. My average drive ends up right at 275 on monitors after hitting hundreds of balls on them. And I’d say my average spin is right at 3,000

My call flies further than almost anyone with identical swing and spin speeds as me, and rolls nowhere compared to any golfer I have played with as well
