Great link. I tell you what, using Cobra Connect involved some humbling reality checks.
I tend to agree with Carlos...should we count it if it is a smother hook that goes 20 yards?
Through anecdotal evidence, I also agree that most people think they drive the ball further than they actually do.
I was at a scramble yesterday and my group was 3 guys that I did not know. On the first tee box, one of the guys said that if I can get one in play than he will be able to bomb one for us.
I said, no problem, and hit a drive that found the fairway...he hit his "power fade" and we walked up and he was 30 yards behind me...he felt that I must have hit mine 330 yds...

I wonder how many people that are questioning these numbers measure each drive with a reliable tool - GPS, software, etc. - and know their actual averages.
Numbers are scary. I have a distance measuring function on my gps and never use it.
My Garmin watch gives me distances for all hits automatically while I play.
I have lasered back to the tee box a couple of times to double check...it is very accurate.
It is funny though..my watch does this but people I play with do not know...so when we walk up to their ball, they say, "Man I crushed that, solid 270!" I look at my watch and see 234yds....I tell them nice drive and walk on.
Golf should be fun and thinking you hit a drive 270 yds is fun...no reason to pee in anyone's Cheerios.
You smash the ball with all clubs, not just driver.I tend to agree with Carlos...should we count it if it is a smother hook that goes 20 yards?

Sorry, wasn’t trying to offend anyone. I just know in my league everyone thinks they hit it farther than they do. Have a guy on my team who is plus 1 handicap and everyone thinks he hit it 300 every time and it’s actually 265-270
