How far do you drive?

I usually hit the back of the JCC range's fence, teeing off from ground floor. Good shot hit the middle of the fence. Not so good shot hit either the bottom or slightly before and bounce to hit the fence.

So that is 200m? plus abit (since fence is behind the 200m mark). I use the superfast 2.0 which is slightly longer than average club.

If I purposely keep my wrists hinged abit longer at the top of swing before releasing at at low point prior to impact, I can get the ball further (but it tends to have chance of slicing cuz my rhythm changes) Usually on the course I will use more of my hips to swing thru the ball to keep it straight and more consistent. (unless betting long drive with brother . With my current body structure, I feel I can't really swing much faster now without purposely lagging my wrists.

I've managed to "two-on" the Hole 10 (maybe Hole 1.. maybe mixed up) par 5 on RCC lake course with a driver shot and fairway wood. Then 3 putt for Par. The green is very fast in RCC (vs my other club in Malaysia). 3 Putt damn often -.-

going past 200m with range balls is good!

Sometimes try to hard I can hit over the fence (on the left or right side heee hee)

Ya ya..... How Liang

Bad drive: -2m
Good drive: 200

lol~!

I'm still switching between inter-lock & baseball grip.
Back & forth ... cant figure out which is more comfortable.

*CHEERS*

i find that baseball grip makes the hands very rigid..

difficult to rotate through the shot..

Using my lousy John Daly driver that came with my set,

Bad: 140m (mishit or slices, Slices go about 120m and about 3 fairways right LOL)
Ok Shot: 160m (did a 200m once with a ok shot on a R11 Driver.)
Good: 180m

Now im driver / Iron hunting =>

That's because all your shots backspin about 50-80m.

Good drive around 150m, bad drives usually end up in next fairway

Good drive 190m.....bad drive may not pass red tee.

After 20 years of golf, I drive 300M!
150M Up and 150M down

SBH is around. He's like a silent assassin. He lurks in the background....

He also claims to drive short distances... but that's only when he tees off with his PW.

One thing I like about GR is they are good in making your head swell.
Even though you all are lying, it make me feel good.

master SBH, I still owe you $$$, when you free for a game with me? or I buy you lunch?

master, pls dun listen to rumors ... will await your return

If someone hits 200m at range with range ball, will he hit longer or same on the course? If longer, how much longer?

Sorry for the noob question, never been to course before. Thanks.
