Which is more important Dispersion or distant?

What is a good ratio for distant and dispersion

HEY mate , i will say dispersion but the think will be 50/50 . have the distance and control you dispersion. but dispersion is a bit more important if you can keep the ball in play you have better chance to score low. cheers biggies

Well I would say the ratio between distance and dispersion is bout 1:9

Distance without accuracy is utterly useless..

Accuracy without distance jus add 1 more stroke..

Personal view though...

Hehehe..

Once, I watched golfchannel and heard Camilio Villegas said that " the higher the level you play in, the shorter you will be"
Make sense eh? Very much depends on which will enhance your level of enjoyment bro.

It's a no-brainer, really...

Would you rather drive 300 yards and spray it all over the place... Or you would have it about 225 yards (on average) splitting the fairways most of the time?

If u ask. I will go for accuracy than distance. Even if I get to the green in one extra stroke I can still putt for par since i am accurate enough to get near the hole.

I ever heard a fellow GRian mention this.. " who cares whether i am on the fairway or not, as long as i am closer to the green!"

If accuracy is more important, should all of us be using stiffer shaft?

here 's a pee-shooter view of this:

In real life, there is no ideal situation ie, there is always dispersion. So the question, at least to me, is how much of dispersion can I tolerate. Currently my 'slice' tee off which I re-brand it as 'fade', fades to the right around 5-7.88m (hahaha...actually between 5-10m)......and such, this is something I can tolerate....

Bro, then you can try to apply my logic.

I too recently changed my driver shaft fm a stock shaft to a G4........but i did not (yet) go thru fitting, which I should. Just like you, both shaft give me same distance...but there is one subtle big difference (see how i contradict myself).......the G4, I need less effort...ie not much focus, not much worry...just whack......but the stock shaft, I need to look out for setup lah, swing lah..etc etc...

This is what I believe: you should not be afraid to play the STIFFEST shaft you CAN handle in a driver...

Difference is, you swing pound the ball, Duval_S caress the ball....

You are at least 50 metres in front of him, so 20 metre dispersion very the good oredi.

Can someone tell me what is golf??? Have anybody ever heard the word: GOLF???

Ya, golf is a game where people underdeclare their prowess. Me, i'm just a shameless tour-issued equipment slut, but doesn't mean that I can play well
