I just started playing in 2015 so it's my all-time longest lol. 300 on a 309 par 4.

It was this drive in September. Ground was dry and I remember a slight tailwind. It occurred to me afterwards when I was reviewing my round that this drive on most other holes would have been lost or in serious trouble considering how off line it is from center, so I guess you could say I got away with one.

Updated. Played with @SavvySwede yesterday and apparently beat my longest drive of the year...with the mini driver. The tees were elevated and the hole was downhill, but still this is a bit ridiculous. I didn't know how far it was until I got home and plugged in the Game Golf; it didn't feel like 300 at the time.

I hit a wind aided 326 last week. Heavy wind at my back was really surprised. So was group I drove into. I was sorry that it happened they were just as shocked as me.

I am not a longhitter, pleased with every drive that hits the fairway and goes 220y. But I had my moments of joy this year. On a par4 at my homecourse I hit it 300y. The funny thing is, there were no helping circumstances. Only 70y to the green, so I hit it in the greenside bunker  and made bogey.

best one was in Italy, 310y and winning the longest drive prize that day. Next day I even hit 10y further, but longest drive was on an other hole that day.

Touch over 300.  Generally have a couple of drives like this every year for the past couple of years, once I started using the Cleveland Hi-bore and then moved to the R5

I'm painfully short, but on one scorching August day the fairways at Kittyhawk were harder than Wagoner Ford Rd. on the other side of the fence. I hit a perfectly adequate drive on No. 7 of the Eagle course and watched the ball hop, skip and roll straight down the middle. For the first time before or since, I hit a PW to that green and birdied it. So I'd estimate about 290 total, but probably only 230 carry.

Funny, my longest drive of the year was yesterday in 45°F weather with a cold ball.    Didn't overswing ... just caught it pure - went high, long & straight - could tell hit it perfect on the sweet spot of the club face.    It was wet with no rollout ... 275 ... that's all I have in the tank.
