# 4 iron distance at age 60

A golfer of 60 carries a 4 iron about 140 yards on the age model, at 69 mph of club head speed, and totals 146 yards on a fairway landing. That is 17 yards behind the peak of 158 yards at 20, which the published fairway table prices at about 0.07 of a stroke per approach.

## Key figures

- A golfer of 60 carries a 4 iron about 140 yards on the age model, at 69 mph, and totals 146 yards.
- That is 17 yards behind the peak, worth about 0.07 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.
