    Why do I need a good short game if I don't miss a green

I thought I remember hearing a lot of these guys on tour don't want a ton of roll because they want the ball to stick in the fairway. With the tight fairways on tour these guys would constantly run out of the short grass with 30 yards of roll, would they not?

I wish they would do that  seperate the stat between drivers and 3 woods or drivers and others.  I think that would make a more interesting stat.

Average PGA tour carry is 269yards. Average total distance is 290yards.

So, about 35 yards shorter on average than your regular WRXer?

You beat me to it, I was thinking the exact same thing.  My daughter was in the other room and wanted to know why I was laughing so hard.

So when I find my tee ball in its plug mark at 275 it doesn't mean I'm short? Just short for a WRXer? I feel so much better now
