The impact of temperature on distance
Overkill/Henny,

Does the ball fly further when it is 100 degrees than when it is 80 degrees? What is the impact of humidity? Is there any type of formula you have developed? I've felt I killed it before when it was 35 degrees and I didn't have to walk very far. Between 35 degrees and 100 degrees I am guessing there might be as much as a 20% difference in driver distance.

Really curious to hear what you guys think.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
