I think a lot of the arguing about driving distance here comes from the "If I can't do it, no one else can" crowd. Just sayin...
No. It's the fact he supposedly has 2 swings & his "keep it in play swing" goes 300+. He hits his pw 165. He hits the ball that solid & barely breaks 90. Maybe he does hit it that far but to come with something that far fetched without proof is asking to be doubted. How does he get exact carry numbers for a driver? Oh sky caddie.

Hitting it solid and hitting it far are two different things. 50% is not hitting it solid. I rarely hit a driver under 300 though.
Recently, #1 at Willow Creek. Measured my drive at 328. Are you suggesting I got 50 yards of roll?
I hit a full PW 165. I also play with +1" shafts.

Gotcha. Didn't read that far back. Someone at the St. Jude yesterday hit a PW 170 or 180. It was sick. I think it was Rory. Followed by his 340 drive. I hit the ball a very long way off the tee but my PW is 155 tops. The harder I swing it the higher, not farther it goes.

Ive never had my swing speed measured, but I am a fairly long hitter. I average 320-330 and when I get after it can hit it 350-360. Of course I'm 6'5 and 280 so I have a lot behind the ball. One of our members here, SolidRockGolf, designs shafts for long drive guys and he said he could get me into a starter setup for competitions. Thinking about doing it. The rest of my golf game is hopeless so I might as well.
