Normal swing walk-off averages, meaning hard, but preserving spine angle:

Driver:  269

3-w:  241

5-w:  225

3-hybrid:  212

4-iron:  191

5-iron:  178

6-iron:  168

7-iron:  152

8-iron:  142

9-iron:  130

PW:  123

52*:  100-115

56:  ~85 yds, but usually not full swing territory

Those are my 2010 stats at 34 years old in Texas using a uPro GPS with the shot mark feature.  Not all of them have a lot of samples, some of them are more into the wind and some more with, etc.  i.e. the normal statistical measurement problems.

Do you know if any of the Droid golf GPS apps have a shot mark feature?  I'd be super into getting this sort of information.  I think I know pretty well how far I hit my different clubs, but I'd love to see where I'm wrong and what the distribution of distances for each club looks like (for the clubs I hit regularly at the courses I play at least).

FWIW, my avg. distances are something like:

Driver:   285 (Carry + Roll, usually with hard SoCal fairways giving good roll)

2H:         220-235 (Depending on whether it's teed up or not)

4i:           200

5i:           188

6i:           176

7i:           165

8i:           153

9i:           142

PW:        130

54˚:         115

When needed I can close the distance between the 4i and 5w by either fading a 5w or drawing the 4i.

Usually about 10 yards short if there is trouble in front, or 10 yards long if the trouble is in the back.

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.
