Longest Personal Drive?

[supercow]

Just curious what's your personal best. Mine was 330 metres (360.89 yards) total, downhill, no wind, hard fairways during autumn.

[Sherpat]

Right around 230 yards (about 220 in the air). That was really good for me, although a lot of credit goes to the conditions at the time. Normally I'm in the 200 - 210 range when I'm hitting it well.

330 yards. I had 25 yards to the pin on a hole that measures 380 yards. It's a very slight dogleg (10 degrees or so) and the pin was just up from center (say, five yards tops), so that's my best guess.

[Metz]

In the air? not sure but after the roll I have ended 330 yards on a down hill par 4. I was just left of the green on the fringe. Best feeling you can have. My partner though Hit his drive past the hole! I Usually hit my drives no farther that 260.

Mine was 380, down hill, down wind. I actually did not hit it that well and hit it a little high, but that actually helped due to the wind. I was 160 out on a Par 5 after that one.

My longest without any assistance from wind or hills was 270.

approx. 340 yards. calm crosswind when i tee'd off. slightly downhill. not sure about the carry b/c i lost view of it and almost fainted when i saw that it landed next to the 150yd stick lol.

par5 490yds.

No, not in the air. Probably about 300 in the air, honestly. It's a flat hole, too - I've hit longer drives on downhill holes, but I don't consider counting those fair.

No wind the day I hit that drive, either.

[ragontona]

380, downhill, downwind.

Flat surface longest drive was 315.

Average drive is about 270...

[ILLZ]

The farthest drive I've ever measured out, and by that I mean subtracted distance from the green from total hole length, was like 265 I think. That sucks.

[Sherpat]

...was like 265 I think. That sucks.

Why does that suck? That's quite a respectable number, particularly for an amature (as a matter of fact, that's 5 yards longer than the PGA Tour average drive in 1993 - and those guys managed to score pretty well with that, I understand). You should be very proud!

[The Rambler]

Absolutely nuked it...300 yards. i landed it right next to the 200 yard marker on a par 5, 500yd hole

[Chris36]

My longest which has only happened once was 250 yards but on average all mine usually go 200-210 yards.

[Dent]

Im sure i have hit at least 1 300 yarder but i have never measured that, Although I have not hit the 300 yard mark yet i have came close. This year ive hit two 296 yard drives, no wind. And also i have hit a 295 yard drive on a dogleg right over the trees.

[Shindig]

2x 280 yard drives. Same hole, 6 or so months apart. Short par-5 (480 yards from the white tees) at my home course. First time, I botched a 3-Iron with the intent of chipping onto the green. Second time, I nailed a 3H to within chipping distance for GIR, hit a bad chip (but at least on!) and missed the birdie putt. At my handicap, though, I can't complain.

Avg drive 200-210.

[P3R3]

301 yards downhill hole

293 on flat ground

[thehillgolfer]

my longest is pin high on a big downhill 410 yard hole....

on my home course i've hit a drive down to 130 out on a 490 yard hole

[CG031]

280 was the longest - It was on a 500 yard par 5 and i had 220 to the hole.

[playfromthetips11]

330 by the GPS in the cart. I caught it pretty good. 500 yard par 5. Knocked it on and 2 putted for birdie. Of course I had plenty of doubles to even it out.
