Is there any guidance on swim golf from a 25m to a 50m pool? I only have access to a 50m pool..

To be more specific, is there guidance for a good swim golf score in a 50m pool.

Thanks

As with other tests ... VDOT, FTP ... The idea is to set a baseline and keep trying to improve it. Some folks may talk about a number, above which your probably need more stroke work and below which, you can probably focus more on fitness. In a 50 m pool, I'd guess that's somewhere in the 80-85 range: :45-7 + 35-7 strokes.

OTOH, there might be some controversy about working on *slowing* your stroke rate, which swim golf puts a premium on. Many people can benefit, for long distance swims, by working on a more rapid turnover.
