Which shot types sit on your bench?
Hey all, Would love to hear what shot types you normally use, which ones you seldom use, and which ones you never use. I’m curious when people are using certain shots and what they believe the a...

@7AnimalMother I use all shots expect Pick and Long Flop which make the game far too easy to play.
I think it is no surprise. I use 8 shot types in this game but predominantly:
1. Power Drive
2. Drive
3. Finesse
4. Spinner
5. Flop
6. Long Flop
7. Pick
8. Chip
But I could easily get around the course and score consistently low with 3.
1. Drive
2. Flop
3. Pick
The game is not difficult, as I have said... I am sure most of us have posted scores in the 50's.
With other golf games I need to always be aware of the slope of the green. I many instances I want to leave myself an unhill shot, whether it's a chip or a putt. In this game it doesn't matter... my flop and pick shots appear to put spikes on the ball. And putting is the same as I can just set how far I want the ball to roll.
Being that putting is distance based rather than velocity based, it is far too east to judge.
I am similar to most player here.
1. Power Drive
2. Drive
3. Finesse
4. Knock Down
5. Spinner
6. Flop
7. Long Flop
8. Pick
9. Chip
10. Pitch
I am surprised no love for the knock down. I find it useful at certain distances into the wind.
Perhaps I'm missing something and need to work harder on mastering my spinner.
I haven’t really figured out how to use the knockdown more effectively than a normal drive/approach or a finesse shot. Do you calculate carry distance/roll out/spin back differently than one of the other shots? If so, how do you do it?
