111 mph!

I've always hit the ball a long way, a well hit drive for me goes over 300 no problem. (subtle brag) Now if i can figure out how to putt ill be in business

By the way, the average swing speed on tour is 113

If you can add that extra 2 mph, sounds like you've got a shot at the Masters next year.

I predict that this thread is going to end up a Dick's measuring contest.

What's your handicap?
I can swing a club as fast as you need me to, but it doesn't matter if you can't put it in the fairway and score. "And you don't score son until you score."

I'm positive the equipment used at Dicks is VERY SIMILAR to equipment used on professional golfers.

I have no idea who you are or what you look like, but I can promise you your speed wasn't anywhere in the range of 111 mph no matter what the machine said.

This will go well for you.

1:100

Also, you may want to get it checked again somewhere else. Dicks, and other retailers like Dicks, fudge their computers. Get in front of a Trackman and tell me what it is then.

fyi, Dick's numbers typically aren't very accurate.

Go hit a on a tracman at a course where they're not trying to sell you a new driver.


110 here, but I'm attacking -5 and across 5. Carry 260-275. I bring my attack angle up 2-3 degrees and I've got very low end tour speeds and angles, reduce spin and carry 290-300 ish and gain another 20-30 yds on run out. Talking only my best swings here, not my average swings obviously.


ETA: I hit with the Titleist pro on a tracman at TPC for about 2 hrs about a month ago and got all my numbers

not a subtle brag but id definitely still beat the OP by at least 15 strokes if we played.

btw not to intrude on your story but I never told you about the time I walked up to the booth at the carnival and threw 97 mph, I had guessed 99 mph so I lost, but true story
