Hmm, this makes me realize I don't do enough field work. I think it's around this:
putter - 220'
midrange - 260'
fairway - 290'
distance - 320'
putter - 220'
midrange - 260'
fairway - 290'
distance - 320'

KC aviar: 280'
Roc: 315'
Teebird: 375'
Tern: 415
I was really only consistent to 400' with any driver before i started throwing a tern. If you don't know you better axe somebody. Tern is da truf

This is almost mine exactly. take about 20 ft off the max d. BTW this is an open field situation right? all the height i need for putters and back and forth i need for a max d drive?

putter (d challenger): 190-210'
mid (10yr buzzz): 275-295'
fairway (400 f7): 295-315'
distance (ESP nuke): up to 330'
These are my average "maximum" golf distances when on a relatively wooded course such as Hudson Mills - Original. 80% of my (non-putting) shots are with a mid. I rarely throw any true distance drivers, as you can see there isn't an appreciable difference from the fairways (f7, teebird, Leo) to anything over speed 10/11. Thrown on a distance line I can get the nuke or my buddy's D1 out past 350, but conditions have to be right, and I must have freshly sacrificed 2 lambs a chicken and one used Groove in order to get there. Not very practical on the course.

Realistic Distance on Golf Lines:
Aviar PnA- 200'
Roc- 250'
Teebird- 275'
And honestly, my Valkyries aren't much further than that... Actually I'm more likely to throw my Teebirds 300+ than my Valkyries. So I'd say there is a reliable 75' difference on golf lines.

Everything for me is pretty bunched up together.
Ion: 275' (I used to be able to throw close to 300' but I just don't try and launch putters that much anymore)
Mids: 300-315' (probably)
Eagle/Leopard: 320'
PD/Saint: 340s (probably)
I'm limited by small, weak hands so I can't really throw anything faster than speed 9/10 without lots of slip outs. B/c of that, I don't really throw for max D either. I need to go out to a flat field with known distances and see what shakes out.

I have some pretty gnarly gaps, honestly...
Wizard: About 250-260
Jokeri: Around 275-300
Breakeri: 300
But my distance drivers
SOLF: 350-360
QOLF: 325-350
Tern: 375
So I must really suck, LOL

Now, golf lines that's a different scenario. I never use my Wizards for anything but putts and upshots, so that doesn't really count (even though they do make awesome driving putters). I also never break out the Tern unless I have a lot of room to work. Even on a hyzer flip it needs a lot of movement.
That's why I have OLFs and Teebirds and Volts and Patriots and mids. haha!

Aviar - 300
Roc - 330
Roc3 - 340
Leopard - 350
T-bird - 370
Firebird - 360
Boss - 430
However it really all depends on the line, and especially on the wind. The distance between them will contract with a tailwind, and lengthen into a headwind.

Distance?
OK.
BH:
Pure: 300-320'
Jokeri: 300-320'
Roc: 330-350'
Comet: 320-340'
Teebird: 370-390'
Monster: 250-270'
Wraith: 400-430'
C-PD2: 350-370'
B.C-PD2: 420-450'
FH: Take 30-60' off.
I don't really throw max D, only few times a summer. I'm slowly gaining more on golf lines and I'm perfectly fine with that.

Interesting thread!
Wizard Putter: 250+ (Typical: 150-200)
Tarsus, Buzzz's: 200-300 (Typical: 200-250)
Leopard, TL3, Witness: 250-300
Daedalus, Unlace: 300-350, with the occasional epic drive approaching 400 when everything is firing correctly.
Just purchased the Leopard & TL3, surprised to find out I could throw the Leopard 300. I think the TL3 is going to fly even further once I dial it in.

My son finally coaxed me into trying Leopards a few months ago. The Pro and DX leo I bag now improved my game markedly.

It's really nice to see realistic distance gaps that are similar to what I experience. Flight and line change is more important for disc class selection, as it seems that most people are seeing only ~30' between classes.
Here are my gaps, going with average distances:
Putters: 280-300
Mids: 300-330
Fairways: 330-360
Distance: 360-390

Slow, my experience is the same but about 30 feet behind you. My putters max out at 250, my mids are where your putters are, fairways where your mids are and my distance drivers mirror your fairways.
