Normally, I can drive the ball about 220-230, just not always straight. However, in Texas after a couple weeks of no rain, I hit one that bounced out a good 260 or 270.

265, straight hole, not down hill, no wind at the time, but I hit it like a line drive, so my roll was probably 30 yards. My longest carried drive is probably 240.

351 downhill but not much wind. I crushed it and it felt great. It was a par 4 and I had 28 yards left to the hole.

My longest drive was 420 yards, which was wind-aided. The fairway was firm, as well. It was kind of neat having a 20 yard chip on a 440 yard par 4. :)

I'd say about 330 on a flat course with the wind behind me. Its was one of those grip it and rip swings that just managed to connect perfect

Hi all...
my personal longest drive was about 360 yds (urgh, i got to convert, cause I got the distance in meters, not yars).
Actually my average driving-distance is about 240yds carry and thats what it's all about, when I got to crush it over some lakes
By the way, I think it's also interesating how far your "longest Iron" was? I hit my 4-Iron 240yds once
Have a nice play!!

Around 330, the hole measures straight away at 380 yards. Just caught one on the screws.. I went to the middle of the green and paced 50 yards or so back to my ball. It was with my old 905t fujikura speeder stiff shaft, in the dead of summer, slightly down wind, fairways were pretty darn firm from a month and a half of no rain (which is a big deal where i live). That day was probably the best i've ever driven it. I hit alot of fairways and a few other drives around 300 yards.

The longest I've ever measured is 307 on the course.....That was in 2000 though, Our driving range has a 50' net at the 300 yard distance, and I have hit it over the net 3 times, so I'm guessing my longest to be about 315 or 320, something like that.

mine actually came today... my local course has been slammed with water restrictions and havent really been watering the fairways. 335 from the blues... I probably carried it around 270, which is on the high end of my average, but since the fairways were baked I ended up pin high. It's not downhill and there wasn't much wind today but I don't even know how much the ball ran on the hard pan. it was actually a little strange because I knew I stuck the ball well and the trajectory was exactly what I wanted but I was looking for the ball in the fairway and the group on the next tee told me it was on the green. I was a little stunned... I'm not short off the tee but am certainly not a 300+ kind of guy but I guess I got a hold of this one and when combined with the hard fairways it just ran like crazy... great feeling though.
