Yea , well on a bad day, my drives travel about 500 yards, maybe 600 if i feel like it, an average day is around 800 for me, fa show. in fact, jason zuback is my caddy!!!

lol, no my average is around 210, but I have an accuracy 68g shaft, rather be straight down with workability, than 400 yards in mud.

I figure between the 230-250. I have reached out and got to the 300 with some wind. I am working on accuracy and placement, so I will keep the shorter yardage if that is a trade off.

225 but with a crappy driver. I'll have my Titleist 907D1 on Monday - keep yall posted. I'm hoping to slow down my swing to gain some accuracy, but I should still improve my distance by 10 yards or so.

I carry 2 drivers usually, one is a serious one and the other is for fun/show. It's a 650cc integra SOOO Long 9º with a steel shaft. I'll use the extra long tee's and pull off the happy gilmore swing. With that size head you can't miss. It's frikkin increadible. But my baby is the Callaway Hyper X 9º with a stiff flex shaft. My average drive is about 320 with the Happy swing, and around 290-300+ with the Callaway. Tee it high and let it fly!

Average 210-220 yards ! Longest drives I saw/witness (in play) from amateurs (hcp 5-10) is around 260-280 yards (normal weather conditions).

I expect an average drive to travel around 280-285. The problem is that my accuracy is not the best. Driving is definitely the weakest part of my game. I'd estimate that I hit 5-6 fairways in an average round. I'd have no problem giving up a few yards for accuracy, but I'm no more accurate when I swing easy with my driver than when I take a full solid swing. I think I could bring my handicap down 3-4 strokes pretty easily if I could improve my tee game.

Just for reference, I swing a Callaway FT5 with a X-Stiff Fujikura shaft.

I'm going to say 265 because I usually have trouble finding the fairway at times.

The skycaddie puts me at 265 in the rough and usually 280 if it lands in the fairway. If I hit it pure and on the sweetspot, fairway, it will be 295ish, 300 depending on how soft or hard the fairway is.

Just got the igolf Neo last week and I've been measuring my drives.

I'm averaging about 230-245. Really high ball flight though, I think my swing has outgrown the 10.5 degree loft on my HiboreXL.

Not my driver since I can't hit it well but I tee off with a 19 degree hybrid and usually get about 220-230 with a 20 yard roll. So around 240-250 total. I am about the same with a 3 iron off the tee as well when I can hit it straight.
