Distance honesty....honestly.

He forgot to mention down hill

and three throws:doh:
jk maybe 475

 

[smyith]

careful with that, exagerated paces are highly innacurate over long distances. Natural pace is typically much more reliable.

my natural pace is almost spot on a yd. a football field takes me 101-102 paces. it helps alot when your shoe is 12" long.

Measured at 450. Other shots around 420ft But a gooooood drive....maybe 400.

On an average course, avg drive....probably around 350 for a solid drive...325 for some obstacles and 300 with major obstacles ..

It really depends on the conditions and the layout. I'm not impressed if somebody says they drive 400+, but if they drive 280 through the woods and shape that perfect shot....WAY more impressive


With that said...Open field, avg wind on a really good throw of like a Max D driver.... about 425ft

Most of the time, I just say "over 400" which is true. A few times, I've said "about 450"; which I thought was true at the time. I'm not sure now. I don't know which measurements I trust, and which ones I don't.

 

[simpletwist]

I have a bad shoulder, and I have Tendonitis in my arm, so I can't throw like I used to. If I hit 300ft , I am having a good day, so I have to make it up with accuracy.

I second this.

 

[mrDROCK]

Why lie when my max is only 300'? I wish it was more, but I am not trying to fool anyone.

 

[domromer]

Is max what you've done a few times but couldn't repeat on command or is max what you can do consistently? I have hit 405 and 420 a few times over the past ten years. I can do 350 consistently.

 

[Dan Ensor]

I'm sure you'll get a few answers, but I'd say what you can do every day is max. Or at least everything but the very worst days.
