Peltz Boxing

Read a book by Dave Peltz that a ball hitting a higher ground surface will run a lot longer than a ball hitting a lower altitude surface.
A hole in my course has a channel that is 40 feet below the square. If I hit a drive of 250 sqm on that hole, how far is declined?

270 meters distance is increasing

Jaime is correct, but if you're not a physics major (Dave Pelz is a former NASA engineer), the easiest way to think about the present situation. The flight of a well struck golf shot is a parabola. When the green is above you, the ball landed near the top of the arc and moves a bit like hitting a line drive in baseball. It will roll too but have less to do. If the green is below you, the ball fell at the bottom of its normal flight path and arrived almost straight down, something like an infield pop fly in baseball. There will be almost no role at all even if you could see much more wear.

Jaime formula can help in the calculations, but less than the hole in question is a normal three, I do not see why reducing the distance between the driver is that important. Many people expect an increase far beyond what they get when driving an elevated tee to a fairway far below, but because the ball is falling like a corner kick, the amount the actual roll is usually very small unless the fairway slopes downhill as those of the Augusta National.

To add, much of this has to do with the normal trajectory of YOUR type drives. If you're used to a high trajectory shot with little roll, the distance will not significantly reduced at all. However, if you normally hit a record low flying with great roll, you'll now see a bit of a significant decline because your reader has essentially "turned into" a higher trajectory shot that he loses velocity will decrease more rapidly than it continues forward.

Like aggieban poster says that if you hit a driveway in the starting area, you'll have less turnover, but more airtime .. whatever your normal path.

An example, there are situations (one in particular) in my club where the dogleg P-5 is strongly inclined to the left about 240 yards from the tee high (about 40 feet above the fairway) is amazing how many of my guests fall short in the waste area to the left before the turn, because they "hammered" by "an iron or 3 3W lest they run through the dogleg .... Again, because the 20-30 meters or so of the role they rely on "were not there."

The golden rule here is to divide the number of feet in the fall of 32, it will give you the amount of extra time the ball remains in the air. In this case, it is approximately 1.25 seconds. According to the source below, a ball struck with a driver travels about 47.5 km / h (70 feet / second) when it hits the ground. But only a certain amount of this velocity is forward, the rest of this speed is decreasing. Suppose that 60% of which is the speed before the ball would be traveling at about 43 feet / Send the second. At 43 feet per second to 1.25 seconds, the ball has traveled 54 feet further (about 18 meters to make extra). But as you say, you will not roll well when it hits the ground. So I'd say you get 10 extra yards.
