That's okay if you laugh. The people I play against do too at first.

With those distances everything should be a par three for you. Is your putting that bad?

it is.

I usually hit driver lob wedge on par 4's, driver 8i on par 5's. Someday my short game and putter won't betray me...

Wow. I knew I shouldn't have posted my distances. Of course someone would get obnoxious about it. So I hit the ball a long way...that just creates a totally different set of challenges to the game that I need to figure out. No need to go knocking reputation points.

OK, all these distances have been confirmed using either:

I would be concerned about the gap between your 1-iron and 3-iron. Hitting the 1-iron 2200 yards farther than the 3-iron suggests that you are clearly not swinging hard enough with your shorter clubs. -E

Mind you I do live in the thin air of colorado. I know that my irons don't follow the pattern mainly because I am trying to learn to hit them about 90% as I tend to get what I want if I do where when I pull driver I swing for the fences. wedges really can't be hit by me at a full pace. I played hockey before golf and I am just trying to slow it down in favor of accuracy.

I acutally gained 5-10% of distance, when I started taking lessons last summer, but still have to work on bringing the scores lower..

First, and I don't mean to split hairs here, but there are only 5 O's in BOOOOM!!!!

Second, although my hero was known to " occasionally " say BOOOM!!!! (with the proper 5-O usage of the word), when he really wanted to bomb one for TV, he said POWWWWWWWW!!!! (One O, 8 W's) This 5 second video will help prove my point.

After reviewing the posts I'd like to add 10% to my figures, except the driver, to which I add 15%. I'd also like to make a distinction between "off the tee": +12% versus "off the deck": +10%. Also, lower my handicap by 3 points.

I hit my irons various lengths............

In fact, I have been know to hit my PW from a few feet to 150 yards. I'm just not sure when I'm going to do it.

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
