It's A easily.

Sometimes the ball goes straight. Sometimes three-putts are avoided and I can buy my own beer.

What I can't do is hit ball for any kind of distance. 100 extra yards on each drive would be a game-changer.

As long as "+100 to your drives" means any shot off the tee, that's obviously the best choice. If it only meant shots with the driver, it might be a different story.

+100 on my drives-I am assuming you mean playable.

I can fix the rest and I don't drink much anyway.

none of the above - I like my game and earning my improvements on my own.  It would be less fun if I took a pill to get anything.

Alas - and I'm not a beer drinker

 

(if the question was what do I think would have me score better, then it's the option to hit +100 yards on any drive - though I'd feel silly hitting putter on very short par 3s)

I'll take +100 yards with the driver.  Skins money alone would pay for the beer and then some.

Man, I know 100+ yards is technically the best answer for total score improvement, but...

  • My #1 issue is clubface control; put 100+ on my misses and I'm off the planet!
  • Lots of terrain variance, and twists and turns on my home club course (that tips out 6700ish); finding (and hitting) landing spots would take some insane shotmaking.
  • Imagine the looks & comments you'd get standing around waiting for groups 350-375+ yds. up to clear (until they saw you hit it, I guess). ;-)

I'd sure like to hit it straight every single time.

B. A was tempting, but if I could stay in the fairway I’ll live with my anemic distances off the tee.

100 yards hooked or sliced out of bounds is useless. 

I’m already a big hitter, so I would love to just be able to rip it and have it go straight every time.

Hell. with Pill A some of you lot could go to the local range and be the "amazing, golf-ball whacker guy".

I would take pill A and then enter the ReMax long drive competition.

Not really interested in any of the pills.  If I get too good at something, I tend to check it off the list of accomplishments and move onto something more challenging.  I don't want golf to be easy (or make it any easier).  I like that it is challenging, keeps me interested.
