design

To answer your question. Not unless I'm on a range where I can see the ball flight myself.

Par 4's driven this year. (On the green or fringe) 338 yards to a green with water running directly along the right side and bunkers across the left. Trees directly in front of the green. The design intends for you to lay up along the fairway (which runs to the right side of the pond), then to pitch over the water to the green. Drove the ball to the center of the green and it rolled about 5' past the hole. Two putted for birdie. Slight wind at my back. High long draw. 320 yards straight on. Absolutely no risk for going after it. The hole is a bit of a joke. Landed the ball at the front of the green and it rolled to within 4" of the hole. Tap in Eagle. (driven multiple times) 312 yards straight on. Very tight fairway with houses running along the right side and a mountain running along the left. (driven multiple times) 290 yards downhill. This hole is a little trickier than it sounds because there is a pond directly in front of the green. If you hit a drive in the 250 yard range you risk rolling into that pond. You have to carry about 275 yards to clear the water. (driven multiple times) 280 yards with a very slight dogleg left. The fairway is no wider than 15 yards at its widest point and there are thick trees running the entire way on each side. The fairway slopes pretty aggressively to the right and if you lay up you risk the ball rolling behind a tree. I honestly have not figured out how to play this hole. I typically hit a high draw over the green and chip back for birdie or par here. The green slopes heavily away from you so even if you lay up, you risk a tough pitch shot. 360 yards with a slight dogleg right. This fairway is extremely wide open. There is no risk at all for going for it here. The ground is usually hard this time of year so if you hit a fade to about 320 you have a chance of rolling it on. I got the ball up in the air on a high fade and let the wind do the rest of the work the one time I drove this green. 288 yards straight on with bunkers on each side of the green. I hit a low pull fade that landed in front of the green and rolled to 3' past the hole. Made the easy eagle. (driven multiple times) 292 yards uphill. There is a large tree to the front left of the green preventing you from hitting a fade to the green. There is a large fairway bunker about 250 yards up so ideally you would carry the ball about 265-270 yards with a draw (or straight) and roll it to the green. (driven multiple times) 265 yards straight on with bunkers to the left and right of the green as well as directly behind it. This is very narrow green only about 12' wide but fairly deep. I usually hit my 3wood here because if you go over the green you are in trouble. 410 yards downhill. Everything was working to my advantage here. I had a strong wind at my back, the fairways were rock hard, and I was hitting from an elevated tee box. My drive landed about 50 yards short of the green and rolled all the way to the fringe. While technically this isn't a driven green, I still putted from the fringe.

I had the exact same setup / situation. I went with at 19* hybrid.

GolfLogix has a free 24 hour demo period, you might give that a shot. Personally it was too slow for me and the distances seemed to be off 10-15 yards on some holes.

Distance and trajectory were very good for me. I couldn't get used to the sound though.

Elaborate?

No offense, but your smash factor is horrible for your handicap (for any handicap actually). You should try slowing your swing down a bit and work on hitting closer to the center of the clubface.

The furthest I've holed out from was just a 30 yard pitch shot. I was about 2" away from holing out a 322 yard drive earlier this year though.

I've searched as well, they do not make one.

It's simply not possible. The highest ball speed you can expect to achieve with a clubhead speed of 105 is 155mph, and that's with absolute perfect contact. To answer your question, those numbers are not carry distances, they are total.

I prefer hitting my 3i over any fairway wood or hybrid I've ever hit. I wish mizuno made a 2i in the mp57s.

You're friends are probably just hitting it too low.

I used to be that guy. A) It was the only club I could hit consistently. B) I liked to show off a little. I rarely hit more than 5-10 balls with the driver on the range nowadays.

Think this may be an example of being unfamiliar with actual distances (no offense, I've been there) With optimum launch angle, and a perfect smash factor, I don't see a 105mph SS hitting longer than 285 without some crazy wind or cart path interaction. And thats an absolute perfect swing. Usually when folks accuse me of hitting one 340, it's closer to 290 or 300. I could be wrong about the NFL guy, but your friends numbers don't match up.

Shot an 85 on a course I've never played before. 73.3 / 122 I drove the ball extreme well, my approach shots were money, and I had 9 three putts. Absolute worst putting display I've had since I was a 20+.
