I believe it. Could be greens like Chambers Bay where if you can run it on, they can roll around for a while and if the flag is in a bowl they find their way there.

yeah but this hole was 278. 22 yards shorter than 300. a lot of people can drive it 280. And if the hole was 278, then the green would start before that.

I have maybe 2 drives over 300 in about 40 rounds of golf.

I hit the longest drive I've hit in a long time two weeks ago on #9 at Bayhills and it was only 252.

Not to mention, why would you be a 12 and say you're a 4, that'd be stupid if you're playing in a tournament.


Have you really never met this guy?

There are many of them out there.

Edit: he's a +4 not a 4. It's not the score to me it's the hole in ones.

Not saying I haven't, but three shots into the round you can tell he was lying and he wouldn't be capable of hitting 2 greens off the box of a par 4.

Just because it says he's a +4 doesn't mean he's legit. I've met plenty of people that are completely full of shite about their game and reverse sandbag their caps.


If he shot a 57 and said he was a 12 handicap I'd think something was up, him saying he is a 4 I think its more legit. Not to mention, why would you be a 12 and say you're a 4, that'd be stupid if you're playing in a tournament.



He's saying he's a +4 breh. That's on the other side of scratch

Tour driving stats come from 2 holes each tournament. Things can happen. Downwind/downhill and hard surfaces

Most of the people I know can hit a 3 wood 280 yds. Sorry you know so many weak people.

WTF is a plus 4 that can hit a 3W 275 with a baby draw doing playing a 6,050 yard, par 72 course?

What I am saying is that based on his handicap, he's clearly a good golfer which would be required to shoot a 57.

Lots of people can do it. They just don't do it consistently

It isn't. Driving it 300 and consistently straight is hard.

I drive it 300-310ish, but I never use my driver because half the time its 300 yards to the scene of the crash in the woods.
