Default Re: [Golf]Your longest drive?

my back's been bothering me a bit, but I can stripe them a good 380-400 when I get a hold of one. I've actually driven a few par fives with my very longest

Never been very long. My longest were in the 325-340 range at Denver's altitude. That was persimmon and balata. Some guys around the course I played at could push 400 with the old equipment sometimes, and very often be in the 325-350 range. I am even shorter now being fatter older out of shaper and playing less. Recently have been hitting the Ping driver with a pro V better. 270 when I catch it, getting my rancid 250 easier. Hoping for a consistent 260 or so, that would be OK. I am good at pulling the ball though. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

314 yards. Stepped off by a caddie at the Ritz Carlton in Orlando, Florida. Downwind on a very firm fairway!

It likely rolled about 85-90 yards.

Id be willing to bet that I have the longest here: 400 yards. I normally hit my driver 300, but this one was downhill with the wind in colorado.

buncha [censored] liars here.

I love it.

Uh, 325 or so. Crushed it. Angry. Right down the middle. Didn't roll much.

I hit a 2 iron about 350 once. Nice down hill roll. Rolled on the green.

This thread absolutely reeks of 'Drive for show, putt for dough' [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'm only about 240-260 off the tee with probably a 270 as my best...

But I've got 26 and 27 putt rounds under my belt, so...

264 yards. Reached the green on the shortest par-4 ever created. I've never bought good golf clubs in my life (I'm not close to good enough, nor do I play enough, to make the investment worth it), so it was with your run-of-the-mill Walmart medium-head driver.

Not that I can prove it one way or the other ... but I have a hard time believing some of you. Especially the ones who say their average drives are in the 330-350 range.

I'm 5'10 160, and my average drive is around 250. When I go after it, I can get it up to around 280 or so.

To give an idea, from about 510 yards on Pebble Beach's 2nd hole, I roped a driver and roped a 3wood and reached the back of the green.
