Google Earth?



I read somewhere that you can use google earth to check how far you hit a shot. How do you do it I played around with it and couldn’t figure out how to measure distance.

Just do like a lot of folks do elsewhere & lie. Claim you can drive the ball all day long 300+ yds, better yet if you claim to also be able to do it with your 3 wood.

There is a tool bar on the top of the screen with a little ruler. Click on that. It brings up the ruler function. Change the distance to yards. Then its just clicky-clicky. Click on the teebox, drag and click about where your ball ended up.

I get some weird distances with that thing. Maybe I'm not at the correct spots from the tee or something. For instance I'm getting like 220 on a drive into a bunker then I hit a 7iron onto the back of the green, out of the bunker, coming in at nearly 180. A bunch more too. So either my drive startpoint/endpoint is off or I'm hitting 160yd. pitching wedges all over the place.
