My buddy I played with yesterday ( a college golfer at TN Tech) has that kind of distance. He weighs a buck forty and just rips it with a really short swing.
I was driving it great yesterday, 280-290 and straight and he was blowing it 30-40 yards by me down the sprinkler line.

I was just bustin your nuts Marty.

FYI: Not sure if I told you, but if you haven't switched to the Srixon Z Star golf ball yet, you are missing out. Best golf ball I have ever hit.

Root for the Eagles? No. I do believe he deserves a second chance and I hope he takes advantage of it and turns his life around. We shall see...

If he keeps hitting it like he did yesterday, yes. Just about pin high with every approach shot. I love the way he's swinging the club right now.

Jer, Tiger sent me a text last week and wants to know why you won't return his calls. Said he is waiting on those driver lessons you promised him.
