Yardages are measured to the center of the green.  Depending on the depth of the green, you probably hit that drive somewhere in the 260ish range..... Just sayin'.   ;-)

Yeah, it was about 270 in real world yards.

I don't understand this. You have pretty good yardage with your irons and down but when you get to 3 wood and driver, it kind of peaks off

It's funny, I see lots of people good with their irons, and expect amazing distances with their drivers only to be disappointed. Strange.

Angle of attack on driver especially can make one lose tons of distance

I was thinking the same thing.

I started playing again about 7 months ago after about a 2 year layoff. I obviously got older and also heavier and I have lost a club length across the board.

I think you are doing great for your age. Seems like you posted realistic distances, something that 90% of players have hard time doing. Love seeing those 6i 150 and driver 250 plus.... ;)

I actually dont carry a driver at the moment, instead i play a 3 wood - the course where i play has very narrow fairways so being in position for the next shot is crucial

Averages, huh: I think most of you are BS'ing yourselves. Post your handicaps, the balls that you play,and the regions where you play with your distances and then let's see what we believe.

I play on the moon, with moon-rocks. My drive still hasn't landed yet...I'll let you know the distance when it does.

    • Yes. If you choose to take the ball out of the bunker instead of taking maximum available relief… it costs a stroke.
    • I got another one today....Number 17. Par 5 that has water left and right on the layup. I smacked a drive down the left side and got a little lazy on the layup and fanned my 6 iron. With 112 to a crowned green I got it to 3 feet and birdie!  Only 5 and 15 is left for this year! 
    • Maybe I didn’t explain this properly. Back and front can be confusing.  There was no place in the bunker that didn’t have 2-3 inches of rain water in it, except for a small spot on the slope nearest the pin. If I had dropped there I would be moving 6-7 feet closer to the hole. Since my ball was just inside the bunker, farthest side from the hole, I dropped one club length backward, which brought me out of the bunker. I could not have hit from that deep of water. Are you saying I would have had to take a penalty stroke due to rain water? 
    • Day 550, May 5, 2024 Got a good hour in with a typical (for me) two-stick setup: pool noodle angled in front, yardstick on the ground angled 45° behind me.
    • Day 130: Cinco de Mayo Day 7/24 of Full Speed Spectrum training. Difficult training day after struggling to certify my warmup yesterday, and today. Finished 13 mph lower than my training speed on Thursday. Hope to hit some balls today.
