Re: Driving the Ball 280 to 300.....Really???
This thread is convincing me I drive it a lot shorter than I think.
I'm 5'11" 150 and for whatever reason, I can't really hit with any consistency unless I swing out of my ass. My friends often comment on how hard I swing, but when I try to slow my club speed down I end up being disasterously inconsistent.
I found a driver a few years back that I could hit really well, and actually gets a pretty consistent (slight) draw. Most of my drives seem to be in the 240-270 range, but occationally they get as high as 280 or 290. Last week I was like 10 yards off the green on a posted 325 par-4... flat hole but obviously lots of roll still.
Basically I think for someone to drive (not carry) 280-300 with some consistency isn't that far fetched, but it would be impressive.
