Sorry for the delay in response.
I am indeed talking about all the CTTH courses and games. The amount of left/right and +/- distance deviation far exceeds what I find as a matter of course in non-CTTH games.
A few examples:
#3 Pinehurst, 190 yds away.. Crosswind on 3 attempts. First attempt with a 5 iron G10 master set, rated 190yds, with full backspin using an SD ball goes 193 in the air before landing. 2nd attempt goes 183 yds in the air, 3rd attempt goes 180 yds in the air. That's a variance of 13 yards on the most accurate clubs in the game. That's the same kind of variance I used to get with the Tour Starter set.
#8 PInehurst, 209 yds away. Crosswind on 3 attempts. First attempt with a 4 iron, rated 200 yds, goes 209 yards in the air. 2nd attempt goes 203 yds in the air. 3rd attempt goes 196 yds in the air. Once again, 13 yards worth of distance variance.
The left/right deviations are harder to describe, but in essence it works out like 1 pixel mishits more than defeating 16mph crosswinds, perfect shots that go up to 8 yds wide of target line, etc. In short, my Ping g10 master clubs act like Tour Starter clubs with their deviations in CTTH games. Known shots from stroke play can go far beyond or far short of that I've ever seen in CTTH games.
It's been a constant source of contention for me that there are different parameters in CTTH than for stroke play, and my observations continue to support that conclusion. After having so many rounds of both stroke play and CTTH under my belt, I can only offer my observations of practical experience and application. I sent an email with video clips a long time ago documenting the 13 yd variance in CTTH, and that was back in the days of the Tour Starter set. The fact that I keep coming up with 13yds worth of deviation after all this time cannot be a coincidence. These competitons are measured in feet, and I've has some final scores after 9 holes that are smaller than the deviations of one shot!
Something is amiss, and if it's not your intention to have differing parameters for the types of games, then it might be worth having a deeper look at how these CTTH things are set up.
Thanks for listening, and I'll lay off the topic for now.
