first things first... i am definately not a long baller... if my teeshot makes it to 230 im pretty happy even if it rolled all the way there... downhill
i know a few long ballers... my brother and my cousin being a couple of them... heck i know this girl that plays in our blitz that hits her teeshot 20yds farther than i do...
i dont know if this is true... but ive made a few observations about ppl that can hit the ball really far... especially after watching goydos win...
most of them are either really tall... or really big... or a combo of both...
guys on tour bag on anthony kim being a really short guy... he's 5'10... if they consider that short then most of those guys are 6' plus with ease...
so im thinking most of them dont sling off the rack standard clubs because of their height(im thinking their 8iron is as long as my 4iron... add the wingspan to that equation and no wonder a smooth tempo will carry 290 300...
knowing this makes it more impressive that ak and sadlowski (who isnt a giant) can kill balls but even they are taller than i am... im 5'9 170... my bro is 5'11 200... my cousin is 6'2 215
im feeling the odds are stacked against me in ever reaching the 300yrd mark without alot of help from the cartpath/wind/downhill/back of another guys cart...
well that was a rant... lolz... i guess im just jelly
what do you guys notice about ppl who can hit it out there?
