As amateur golfers, we love to compare ourselves against other players. Whether it's in relation to how far the average club golfer hits their 7-iron or how far amateurs hit their driver, we all want to check our performance against our peers in a bid to gain valuable bragging rights and understand where we need to improve our game.
The balance between improving accuracy and increasing distance on the golf course is a difficult one to manage, especially as the data suggests the ability to hit a long ball is a huge factor in reducing your handicap.
