I was actually looking for the chart Zeph posted earlier in this thread just a couple days ago. If nothing else, I found it. :-P

No, no you can't and I'm almost willing to be my paycheck on it. The average for throwing a 150 pound man is 13 feet and that's carry and roll. As much as you'd like to be you're not in the top 10% of the 150 pound man throwers in the world. You're delusional.

I'm 5'9" and weigh 190 and I average about 12-13 feet. I guarantee I could hit 330 yards though!

I'm 5'10" and weigh 230 and I average about 250-260. I guarantee I could throw you 5 yards though!

I'll tell you what. I'm willing to fly where you are, and bet who can throw a 150 pound man the furthest. $1,000 sound right?

I think this whole thread was a huge misunderstanding. When he says I can 'carry the ball 290 regularly' how means carry it in his pocket.

It's still good though. More than once during a round I have to carry two or three balls that distance. If I hit the first one staighter I wouldn't need to carry any at all!!
