Altitude makes a difference. If you were to go to Denver and hit the ball it would go farther than the difference you are describing here. My ball travels farther in Indiana than it does here and it is the altitude that makes the difference. Run a google map of where you play in MN and then run a map of here and look at the difference in the altitude you will be amazed. There is one club difference between here and Indiana perhaps the same for MN vs FL.

I have heard this several times before.
