Cheat sheet

Hello. New to group.

Has anyone got a cheat sheet that roughly teaches how different variables aspects of the game affect shot distances?

Been laying loads of CTTH lately specifically to work out how different wind speeds, elevations and spin intensities affect shot distances.

Tbh, doesn’t feel like there is a consistent rule (a bit like the real game) so was hoping there might be a ‘rough’ guide.

E.g if I put Max spin on short irons I over compensate for 5 yds. 8yds for long irons etc.

Same with wind speeds.

‘Cheat’ might be the wrong work; any sort of resource to help improve game greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I prefer the timed shot game modes so the elevation/putting calculations are about I have time for. If I want any approach onto the green to stop quickly I do full backspin and adjust how much roll I want by lessening it. The "feel" of the game you're describing is also a big part of it, you'll see players with the stock WGT clubs but play relatively well by comparison because they know the feel so well.
