I’m going to take the (current) underdog and say Collin is going to squeak out the victory, and y’all are going to bomb it 690 yards combined.

Have fun boys!
 
Pringles 546
 
I'll go with Pringles with total driving distance of 591. Enjoy the course, I live 5 mins from BGC, love that course!!!
 
cbaker combined long drives of 574 yards.
 
Both good dudes here so not a wrong answer, but with that being said, I do know why they call him Nick da Stick so...Nick it is. Tie breaker - 825 yards. Don't laugh, I've seen it.
 
I'm going with Pringles (because Grandaddy) and total boom town distance of 611 yds.

Thanks and have fun, guys!
 
Oh wow this is a tough one to call. Both great guys and both really good players. Is Pringles still in the Gathering groove? I haven't seen Baker in some time golfing. So I am going to have to go with recent memories. Pringles 637.
