# 4 iron distance at age 30

A golfer of 30 carries a 4 iron about 161 yards on the age model, at 78 mph of club head speed, and totals 167 yards on a fairway landing. That is -3 yards behind the peak of 158 yards at 20, which the published fairway table prices at about -0.01 of a stroke per approach.

## Key figures

- A golfer of 30 carries a 4 iron about 161 yards on the age model, at 78 mph, and totals 167 yards.
- That is -3 yards behind the peak, worth about -0.01 of a stroke per approach on the published fairway table.

## Scope

- The age model eases a peak club head speed by decade and swings the 4 iron at the same fraction of its tour speed; the carry is the published tour anchor at that speed, and your own launch monitor carries replace it in the app.
