250 off the tee is fine. Its probably above average, matter of fact. You can play up to 6800 yard courses with no problem.

Average distances should include mis-hits and not just perfectly struck shots.

Unusually long hits due to hitting the downslope on the back of a green, or after just clearing a bunker or mound, should probably be discounted entirely. Same goes for flubbed shots. I think the OP does need to work on his method of estimating iron distances, but including only his reasobably good shots in the average would be more useful for club selection.

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

A draw will add about 30 yards of distance with the forward spin and forward roll.

A draw has exactly as much forward spin as any other golf shot not hit with a putter*, namely none.

* Barring a total top/duff and if you want to play for those good luck to you.

    • Completing your first 2 holes in 9 strokes then taking 48 to complete the next 7 is wild. 
    • I had some great moments today, but some garbage as well. Today was my first swing of any club this years.  Hit the range and simply pounded all but 1 shot on target with reasonable distance for me.     first hold wax aboar 5.  I crushed my drive and 3-hybrid and was 6” off the front in too.  Putting was lackluster and I got par 2nd hole par 4 intoning regulation but left my birdie putt 2 “ short, shells then fell off and finished the front 9 with a crappy 57. Back 9 was better with nothing worse than bogey on all holes until #16 when I took a 10 on a par 4. 🤬.  Finished ok and shot 51 on back 9. 108 is garbage but there were a lot of good shots so I have hope. I was frustrated that I ghought my Shot Scope was charged, it was not
    • I like Justin Rose and I wouldn’t mind seeing him win another major, I just didn’t want him to win this one 😃
    • I think Rose might have the most zeroed out putting stroke of anyone out there, although as golfing superpowers go that would be one of the most useless.
    • That pre-swing routine tho.. 🤓
