Well considering Henrik Stenson rarely uses a driver and regularly hits his 3 wood over 300 yards I'd say it's definitely possible.. if you can hit a 9 iron like a 4 or 5..![]()
And it's a sunny day..
And the Wind is with you..
A great shot is when you go for it and pull it off. A smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it. ~ Phil Mickelson.

Stats to believe its possible...and lets see, if theres no stats to prove professionals do it, let alone succeed at it with some degree of success...why try it?
*Edit* Stenson's stats:

ok so you were 5 yards off...on average.

How long is the hole exactly? That'd need to be a hell of a 9-iron on reflection..
