Knowing your accurate club distances is crucial for course management and scoring. Our calculator helps you build personalized distance charts based on your swing speed and skill level, or input your actual distances from practice sessions and course play.

  • • Manual Entry: Input your actual measured distances
  • • Hybrid Approach: Generate estimates then fine-tune with real data
  • • Multiple Charts: Save different sets for various conditions
  • • Easy Updates: Modify individual clubs as your game improves

  • • Carry Distance: Ball flight distance in the air
  • • Total Distance: Carry plus roll (conditions dependent)
