How far do you hit your irons?

[four1seven]

60 - 95-105
56 - 110-125
PW - 135
9i - 150
8i - 165
7i - 180
6i - 190
5i - 200
4i - 210
3i - 225

then I run out of irons...

[dr_faustus]

Hmm, am I the only one with a gap between my PW and 9I?

52 SW - 85
PW- 100
9 - 120
8 - 130
7 - 140
6 - 150
5 - 160
4 - theoretically 170 but just put it back in the bag to replace a 7w. Only used so far to punch out.

In all honesty, this is another how big is my willy thread lol.

And once again, the higher the HC, the longer he hits his irons. That will be followed by "I hit them really far but not that straight." I laugh, sometimes, as reality never enters the equation. Crooked shots go longer that better shots? Do balls that never travel through the short grass always seem to travel further through trees, rough, sand and out of bounds? With the GD U.S. Open challenge, today, perhaps TST should hold a contest, too. Since Titleist is a sponsor, they could get them, involved. Select all these 15, 16, 17, 22 handicaps and some 4 through 10 and have them measure their distances and critique their games. Find out if there is a correlation between distance and ability.

In Seattle:

PW: 100
9: 115
8: 130
7: 140
6: 150
5: 165
4: 175
3: 185

In California:

PW: 120
9: 135
8: 150
7: 160
6: 175
5: 185
4: 195
3: Haven't hit one yet

Yeah, I'm liking California so far. Not to mention, my driver probably goes 30 yards longer here due to the roll. If you can hit it 300 in Seattle (I can't) you are superlong.

As others have said, it is funny everyone with a higher handicap hits it farther.

[crazyface]

4: 160
5: 150
6: 140
7: 130
8: 120
9: 110
PW: 90

they arent very far because i usually just take a slow, relaxed swing and focus more on accuracy than distance.

[CG031]

4 - 175
5 - 165
6 - 150
7 - 140
8 - 130
9 - 115
Pw - 105 - 110

Thank you for posting legitimate distances!! I'm a full club shorter than you, and I know my distances are accurate. It amazes me to read about the high handicappers hitting 270 yard carries with their drivers ("I really flushed it that one time") and 180 yard 7-irons.

I've played with guys that actually do hit it that far, but they're all single digit guys.

[RaLos18]

Approximately:

3-iron 160
4-iron 150
5-iron 140
6-iron 130
7-iron 120
8-iron 110
9-iron 95
PW 80

On all above distances margins are +- 5 to 10 yards depending of the conditions!

[BigDaddy_Sean]

LW - 80
SW - 120

4 - 210
3 - 220
5wood - 230 - 240
3wood - 250 - 260
drive - 280 - 300

[Cody]

I have no really accurrate reading but i hit my 6 or 7 about 150 depending on conditions, but today i hit my 8 about 130 which i was amazed by so i'm not sure!

[CosmosMpower]

Lately I've been making a lot better contact with the ball and I seem to have picked up about a club in distance mainly with the 9, 7 and 5i the rest of the clubs seem to be unchanged, I'm not sure why

60* LW- 30-85 yds
56* SW- 85-110 yds
53* GW- 110-120
48* PW- 120-130
9- 130-140
8- 140-150
7- 150-160
6- 160-170
5- 170-180
4- 170-190
23* hybrid- 190-210
19* hybrid- 200-220
12* driver- 240-280 (carry and roll)

[Lemay427]

3 iron - 220
4 iron - 205
5 iron - 195
6 iron - 180
7 iron - 165
8 iron - 155
9 iron - 145
PW - 130
51 - 115
56 - 105
60 - 95

These are my standard swings. I can juice the 5-PW for about one club further but obviously accuracy goes down.

[golferfreddie]

4 iron - 220
5 iron - 205
6 iron - 190
7 iron - 180
8 iron - 170
9 iron - 160

52 - 130
56 - 115
60 - 100

[FlopShotArtist]

Wedges - IDK, it's all about how far it looks with them.
P-130
9-140
8-150
7-160
6-170
5-180
4-190
3-200
3W-210
D-250-ish (my new driver will likely improve this)

[joshtpa]

I am about the same as Flop Shot, other than I get a 4 iron to 200, 3 iron 215, 3 wood 245, and driver 265. Switching to hybrids gave me a huge gain.,
