Can someone tell me what a 24 degree 4-iron carrying 197 yards translates to in driver swing speed? I have been trying to find out for myself but I can't. You see I just made a major breakthrough with wrist hinge but now I can't seem to catch one solid with the driver. And I want to know what kind of distance I should be shooting for with the driver.

This is just a guess but I would say around 110 driver. With that speed fly it 260-265. I hit my 4 Iron 190 and can fly it around 255.

Thanks Lefty, a real world comparison is exactly what I was looking for. With the new lag, I am rolling out these low line drives to 245 with driver. But if I could carry it 255 I would be very satisfied.

Do you have a lot of lag in your swing? I'm thinking I would gain yardage like that if I could find some way to incorporate some lag.

Yes it feels like I am retaining some decent lag in my downswing now. I have one of those Casio high speed cameras, but haven't had a chance to record and verify if I am still casting though. If interested, I was averaging 225 total when I was casting so I picked up 20 yards. But who knows, maybe 255 is possible with better trajectory.
