Plays-like is a geometric adjustment and nothing more: one yard of playing distance per yard of tee-to-green elevation change, measured off public elevation data. It takes no account of wind, lie, temperature or how a falling ball stops, so it is not a club recommendation. Mapped yardage totals 6,093 against the 6,453 on the card. Elevation: USGS 3DEP (3DEP-1m).
