i am the same as the OP, but in softball.

i mash the ball and i mean i can pick any area of the field to hit my shots, or just jack it 350+ with out batting an eyelash.

i did this within 3 months of picking up my first bat.

i also pitch and have had 8 shut outs in slow pitch softball.

i will post a video shortly from my softball board where i basically rule the paltry newbs from that board :)

JK i suck at this game

I would guess that you could really crush the ball off a drive though. ;-)).

I hope the OP doesn't post a video of Jamie Sadlowski by accident. Bahaha.

I think the OP has achieved what he set out to do. Three pages of discussion already, and he is long gone, probably laughing his ass off. The thread should be locked.

Anything less than 200 yards, of course ).

Check out a video I put in a previous post.


It shows a fellow named "Gorilla James", who is a really long hitter. I think he also hits about what the OP stated he hits (or more).

I was watching a few more videos of him and a few other golfers playing a round together. It appears that that kind of distance lands you in the woods much more often than the reasonable 200 to 275 yard drive.

Most average length public courses aren't designed for guys driving it well over 300 yards on every hole, even from the back tees.  I don't drive it nearly that far, but I find myself pulling driver only 10-12 times a round.  Sometimes as few as 6-8 times per round, if the course plays shorter for any number of reasons.

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
