I was only around 405 until I finally learned how to hit driver.

I don't know what +1 feels like. Never had a bogey.

Sigh...this thread has jumped the shark.

But on the plus side, check out my perky pecs!

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Make sure you're hitting ProV1's instead of range rocks.  Hope you can start pushing 400 I see you getting to maybe 420 with that sick new shaft based on your stats.

Good luck bro.

Probably the best movie ever made.

Just be glad you weren't in middle school when that movie came out. If you were a fat lard, your nickname was "Tina." One year, every kid who ran for class president made their own version of "Vote For Pedro" shirts.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

I'm pushing 40, trust me, I TOTALLY wish I had been in middle school when that movie came out....

My oh my, I must really suck?!

I'm only hitting my drives ~ 260 to 270 on average?  Yesterday, I hit a drive on #10... 285yds.  It was a 'big' drive for me, and it felt great.  Then on #11 I hit and even bigger drive of 290!  But it was down wind, down hill. I really felt good about myself until I saw this thread... Where I find guys are hitting it 320+ on average, and taking their shirts off.

Now I feel like a child.

Don't feel bad, we all have to start somewhere. I mean, some of us started at 320+, but everyone is different...

Yeah... I tried everything I could do to keep from over driving the par 4's.... the only thing that has helped so far on these....

However I still can't hit these with the wind behind my back.... any suggestions?

Gap. Pitching wedge was good for 350. I get more loft with the gap, so it held it up around 305. Anything under 300 now and I just hit a light flop shot and hope for a serious gust of wind against me.

What are the chances that ProGolf is Gilberg's BA uncle?

It was all over when broseph posted a sweet self pic.

I am holding out hope that the OP will post a swing video so that we can all see how it's done...

The challenge has been made.

Wait, I'm confused.

How many middle schoolers is that?
