Distance calculator
Golf Club Distance Calculator
Enter one carry distance you trust and get an estimated carry chart for the rest of the bag, plus the spacing between clubs. Estimates from a fixed model — use them as a starting point and check them on the range.
Why carry distance matters more than total distance
Total distance depends on fairway firmness, wind and slope. Carry distance — how far the ball flies in the air — is the number you control. When you know the carry of every club, you can spot the gaps where no club in your bag is the right choice.
How to find your real carry distances
- Launch monitor session. The most accurate option. Hit 5–10 balls per club and use the median carry, not the longest.
- On the range. Note which landing zone your well-struck shots finish in, and discount the occasional flyer.
- On the course. GPS apps and shot tracking give you real-world numbers under real pressure.
What to do with your numbers
Once you have a carry number for each club, the GolfBag optimizer calculates every gap between adjacent clubs, flags overlaps, and suggests what could fill the holes — based purely on your own distances.
This is general guidance based on what you told us — not a professional fitting. Treat it as a starting point and test it with your own golf ball, grip or aid before committing.
