320 or so is my best on the course(in the fairway) but at the range I can hit them 350 or more consistantly, how far can you CRUSH it!!

Well, what a question!!!! Mine was measured 368 yards. The thing is, it was downwind, and landed over the crest of a hill exactly on the cart path and bounced forward.
We couldn't believe where we found it, just 15 yards from the green. As you can imagine I was quite jazzed nearly hitting the green with a drive. Then I saw the lie, it was awful. I hit into a bunker, onto the green, and two-putted for bogey.
Still for weeks my playing partners were calling me Daly!
What makes this all the more special is that I average about 255 a drive, so this was a once-in-a-million shot.

My longest drive was right at 364 yards. I got ahold of it with my Launcher 460 Comp and landed it in a fairly hard fairway. It took a nice bounce and roll and ended up about 125 from the green on a Par 5. Now only if my short game was good enough so I could eagle a drive like that! =)
I would say on a good day I average around 280 on my drives with long drives of the day reaching around 320.

my longest drive was 364 yards it was a par 5 that was down hill it also it the down slope just right and got massive roll! I usually hit it 290 or so depends on rolls I think I have hit 350 on the driving range a few times but I'm not that big only 5-9 155 pounds. I have to swing so hard to get hit past 320 so swing in control and accept 285-310 that's Good distance no matter who you are or where you play.

I never really tried to hit a ball hard on the course. I average around 275 but will hit most fairways. On a local course I have hit one roughly 360, but it was dry and a severe downhill tee shot.

347 yds on the dogleg left par-5 at Chalk Mountain (Atascadero) on a summer day. I used a Callaway VFT Hawkeye 10 deg driver, clocked it just right and it flew over the bend; because it was summer, there was no grass to catch it and it bounced on hardpan soil and took off coming to rest 200 yards from the green on a 547-yd par-5. Never happen again. Aside from that, my average is 230 yds.

I got lucky and hit one 320 yards on a par 4, 320 yard hole. It didn't hit the green, but was found pin up on the apron. I only average 240-250 yds per drive.

My longest was 368 right down the middle no wind and not downhill , just a straight shot , I was using a Titleist 905T W/Aldila NV 65 X-stiff shaft and a prov1x #2 ball , that ball has been officially retired .
