Are you teed up in those videos? Are you taking a divot?

I’d you’re curious, I shoot 241-265 with my 5i. 241 if I want an easy high fade. Not a yard shorter.

How far you’re hitting it at sea level? 220?

. 245y is the low end. I’m probably scooting that thing 260 avg. 245 when I wanna take a little off and play a high sweeping fade.


I play with several + handicaps that are very long hitters. One of them hits his 4iron like 240 if he catches it. This guy produces way more speed than you do bud while having a much more athletic swing. I know you are at altitude but even then I'm having a very hard time believing these distances.

I’m not a liar so my 4iron goes about 215 if I catch it. This guy I’m talking about shoots under par 8/10 rounds I play with him. I watched him shoot 64 with my own eyes. He absolutely mauls the ball. You ain’t miss hitting anything 240 bud. Keep living in a dream world.

My buddy is a swing coach and is long enough to compete in long drive competitions. When he catches his 4i he can smoke it 250. I have a hard time believing MHD has more club speed than him.

Oh nice! So I’ve got you and your buddy/swing coach/ long drive wannabe beat! I could probably do long drive too but my swing is too pretty for all that. Not trying to gain 30 more yards just to ruin my natural swing flow.

This thread could cure lowT.

It is the Barry Bonds/Mark McGuire of threads.

“I can baby fade a 4 iron 263 and hold any downslope.”

“My butter cut 6 iron goes about 235 and lands like a butterfly with sore feet.”

“I tee off with 23 degree hybrid on any par 5 less than 620 because it allows me to three quarter an 8 iron for the second shot.”

DeChambeau hits his 4i 255. Tiger around 220-230. But we're supposed to believe you are hitting it 260 with any consistency whatsoever?

frick outta here, kid.
