Description

Select optimal clubs and shot strategy for any simulator course hole based on distance, hazards, wind, and your swing data to lower scores.

Use Cases

Helps plan shots on virtual courses.

Inputs/Variables Explained

We ask for simulator course type, hole yardage, par, wind, hazard type, driver carry, and lie type because these determine strategic club choice. These inputs improve course management. Limitation: the tool assumes average conditions and may not reflect real-time wind or green speed variations; strategy still requires on-course practice.

Output Examples

Golf Simulator Course Strategy: Augusta Par 4

Hole Overview

  • Length: 400-500 yards
  • Type: Par 4
  • Conditions: Crosswind, water hazard on the left
  • Target Yardage: 250-280 yards to the fairway

Club Selection and Strategy

1. Option A: Driver

  • Club: Driver
  • Target Line: Aim slightly right of center to avoid the water hazard on the left.
  • Shot Shape: A slight fade can help counteract the crosswind and keep the ball in play.
  • Yardage: Aim for about 270 yards to the fairway.
  • Wind Adjustment: Consider the strength of the crosswind; a strong wind may require aiming further right.
  • Risk/Reward: High risk due to water left, but a successful drive can set up an easier approach.

2. Option B: 3-Wood

  • Club: 3-Wood
  • Target Line: Aim down the right side, similar to the driver.
  • Shot Shape: A straight shot or slight draw will work well in crosswinds.
  • Yardage: Aim for approximately 240-250 yards; this keeps it safe from the water.
  • Wind Adjustment: If the crosswind is strong, play for extra distance by adjusting aim further right.
  • Risk/Reward: Lower risk than driver, providing a safer play to the fairway with a reliable distance.

Summary

Choose Driver for maximum distance and risk for a better approach shot, or opt for 3-Wood for safety and accuracy. Always account for the crosswind when planning your shot.
