This is really not a question all of us can answer and have it mean anything to you. The reason I say this is because I've seen Tiger land a ball 15 yards past the flag, and have it spin back to the cup. I've also seen Tiger land a 9 iron shot on the front of the green, only to have it roll off the back. It's not just the golfer and the ball, it's the greens you play. Here in Colorado, a Semi Desert area. the greens are as hard as concrete most of the time, and getting a ball to stop is about impossible. I've hit a high 9 iron shot to 150 yards, only to have the ball run off the back of the green. And more times than not, I can't find much of a ball mark where the ball landed, maybe an 1/8 inch deep "DENT", I also play two courses with much softer greens due to how the greens were built, and I can get the ball to stop dead, or back up a few yards. On those two courses, I can get my 5 iron of hold, on the rest of the courses, I can't get a SW to hold the greens, much less stop in place.
