I don't bomb it... I'm probably around 225 off the tee, 250 if I get one, MAYBE 275 if I get a big bounce/rollout. So I have to find other ways to score.
I've spent a lot of time on shots inside 100 and it's really paid off. Everyone's oohing and ahhing over the guy who out drove me by 50y, meanwhile I'm calmly writing down par after chipping one close and Long Drive Guy chunks two chips en route to a double.
One thing that puzzles me about Long Drive Guy - he constantly drives himself into shots he can't hit with his wedges.
Case in point: we have several short par 4s on my home course. #3 is 290, #4 275, #5 305, #6 310, #9 300. I play with several guys who insist on driver, smack one out there, then get to the ball and say oh I'm terrible with partial swings, I need a full swing with my wedges.
Ok, so, maybe lay back off the tee to a yardage you like, then? I'm puzzled by that. Maybe the long drive is the fun part of the game for them, rather than scoring?
If they're out driving you by 50 yds they're on the green or chipping/pitching. That's beyond partials imo. I do see this sometimes though. Guys hitting into 3/4 wedge shots they suck at. I think part of it can be that the average guy likes to do what he's good at. It makes him feel good. If the best or only good part of your game was your driving, would you really want to leave that club in the bag all day?
