Downhill shots, whether off the tee or on approach to the green, will fly farther than normal, therefore requiring less club. As a rough guide, for every 15 feet (5 metres) your target is situated below you, it’s best to take one less club. For example, if you hit your 7-iron 150 yards but the green you are aiming at is 15 feet below you, then drop down to an 8-iron. This is a roll shot played to send both
balls through the hoop. This shot should be refereed since there is a good
chance of playing a crush stroke if the balls are close to the hoop.
For putting, the deflection is much less since distance is far smaller. So don’t worry about aiming 10cm clockwise the next time your going for that hole in one. Because most players aren’t used to the feel of the Stinger, their immediate reaction is to tense up. It’s counterintuitive, but gripping the club harder actually leads to a less powerful swing, and more blisters (ouch). Keep them loose throughout the swing, and focus on making clean contact with the ball. The Stinger is undoubtedly a cool shot; do it right and you’ll turn heads at the driving range and if your boss likes it, get a promotion. There are pros who don’t have the confidence to hit it regularly as it’s extremely difficult to perform.

You be the judge… and if you decide to continue purchasing new balls after seeing this, we and all of our customers thank you as you are now one of our suppliers. We have now to transpose these wind tunnel measurements to conditions encountered in play. We are here concerned with the time required for the gall to move approximately 60 feet from the pitcher’s rubber to the home plate. Read more about Golf Ball Cannon here. If the pitch had an average speed of 100 ft/sec, then it would take 0.6 sec for the ball to traverse this distance. But this is exactly the time required for the ball to fall across the wind-stream in the tunnel measurements.
Stinger vs Punch
1) GolfWRX members are mostly just wrong, and all modern drivers actually produce identical ball speeds for perfect impact. Maybe, but it seems like there’s been enough testing to disprove this simple theory. So the best premium balls demonstrate ball speeds about 2 mph faster than budget ionomer-covered balls. Multi-layer urethane balls enhance energy transfer off the club for marginally increased shot distances.

Moving from extremely dry to extremely humid air will barely add one yard of extra distance to each shot. This equates to a difference in carry of about eight yards when moving from a temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Lower temperatures lead to very dense air, taking the greatest amount of distance off your shots. So, in summary, yes, humidity does help the ball fly farther, but the benefits are so marginal that the average golfer will barely – if at all – notice any difference. This is a sort of cannon where a croquet stroke is taken close to a third ball. The croqueted ball nudges the third ball on its way past and the striker gets a rush on that third ball. Cannons are well described elsewhere (e.g.
World of Croquet).
A good fitter will almost always be able to set your equipment up to optimize your launch conditions for any ball you use. If you’re playing a slightly higher spin ball, less loft and a more forward CG. The higher speed ball will almost always be able to be optimized to go further. That’s why it’s very important to get fit using the ball you actually play. So if Titleist can design a ball for the average swing speed player that lends credence to the idea that S/S and ball design (compression??) can be correlated.
