    Yes, this is the 3rd time it's changed.  Please, stop changing the chipping system.  It was great the way it was before.  All I can ask is why?

    This is an ongoing effort from us to standardize the indicated yardages.  This being said, the yardages will always vary even for the same club due to the lie of the ball, the surface it lands on and the speed of the greens.  The indicated yardages are only to be used as a relative baseline and should be compensated for depending on environmental variables.
