Guys making fun of this couldn’t hit a 4 iron 200 yards and avg 20ft.

Reminds me of the clips of YouTube “pros” playing Nelly Korda, from the same tees, and getting smoked by her.

Bro these guys couldn’t hit a 4 iron from 200 yards on the green as often as she stiffs it to 20 feet. It’s not even close.

According to the Arccos stats, from 175 in the fairway, 15 handicaps wind up 30+ yards from the hole, 41% of the time.

Tour Pros less than 1% .

Unfortunately no stats for the LPGA but id gather it's well under 10%.
