for a duffer yes, if you plan to play competitively, no. I am 16 and i have a swing speed of 115-120, i drive 300-310 my 3 iron goes around 230-250 n i hit my pitching wedge 150 my 9 iron goes about 160, but ive golfed since i was 8 and i am really strong for my size. Just get into lifting practice more and get better clubs, you'll defiantly notice some more distance

Distance is not everything. Look to pros on tour who do not hit a long ball, they still make a living at golf because of their superior accuracy and short game.

for your age. don't worry about distance, that will come in time. Get your wedge game and your putter really good now and you can be a great player with enough work

great distance, but are the shots straight? that's what it all comes down to. putting and chipping are key as well.

More than decent, you're quite good.
