Chalk me up a BS'er I guess. I was told my top swing was at 116 at a Callaway fitting. I guess they were trying to sell me that FT-3 because last week I didn't even hit 100mph. on the launch monitor. My driving distance is the same as it was back when I was fit. Probably longer since it's winter and my drives are the same.
Possilbe that quite a few yardage markers are off at courses in my area. I've driven several greens. I'll list a few par 4's I was on in one, 301, 315 (twice), 294 (a bunch, it's my old home course). My longest was probably one I hit with my 360XD with the wind at my back. High and slight draw it ended up in the greenside bunker of a 371yd. par 4. It goes down, up an down at the end. I most likely caught the back edge of the 2nd hill. I lost sight of it when it cleared the 1st (which is not tough to clear, I can get 3w into the 1st "valley". ).
So, yeah 300 is out there and I've probably caught a few dead perfect that rolled out close to it. Carrying 300 consistantly? I don't want to hear it unless the guy is scratch or better.
